Best The Met Store Degas Impressions Double-Sided Square Silk Scarf
$ 72.80
An art scarf inspired by The Met collection. This striking double-sided scarf reproduces two vibrant oil paintings by Edgar Degas (French, 1834–1917) in The Met collection. A Woman Seated beside a Vase of Flowers (1865) depicts a lady—probably the wife of Degas’s childhood friend Paul Valpinçon—lost in thought beside a bursting bouquet. The unusual composition exemplifies the artist’s endeavor to capture his subjects in fleeting, slice-of-life moments. The reverse side of the scarf features one of Degas’s favorite subjects. The Dance Class (1874) pictures ballerinas and their mothers waiting as a dancer executes an attitude for her examination by the ballet master Jules Perrot.
