Edgar Degas - part 3

c1857-8 Self-Portrait in a Soft Hat
This is part three of a three part post on the works of Edgar Degas. Parts 1 and 2 take a look at his numerous ballet subjects (see part 1 also for biographical notes). Part three is a look at a broader spectrum of his work. I think that what all these works have in common is that they show what a superb draughtsman Degas was.
Actually I've now decided that this three-part post will eventually become a four-parter - Degas did a big series of works - studies of nudes, called "After the Bath", and given the popularity of these posts on Degas, I will post that shortly, after a look at someone else.
I'm sorry I don't have all the dates for these pieces.
