We here at AskDegas.com have searched for years and have finally collected a unique niche of superior Degas reproductions that we are proud to share with you today. Many of these are licensed from museums around the world and listed below, are the museums and materials that have made this possible. Degas was mainly a sculptor, printmaker, and painter, but our selection has gone beyond his vision and has attained a broader scope of adaptation.

Degas Walking Horse with Lively Movement
Capturing the equine's extraordinary grace, this sculpture of Degas Walking Horse with Lively Movement was modeled after an original wax, created about 18651881 by French master Edgar Degas (French, Impressionism / Realism, 18341917). Limiting his subject matter to women, especially dancers, and to horses, Degas sculpted many variations of each figure in different poses in order to explore the dynamics of movement. Horseracing was one of Degass lifetime interests, and he frequented the Longchamps racetrack to study thoroughbreds in action and in leisure in order to perfectly capture their beauty in his art. Licensed reproduction made from bonded bronze, hand patinated. Height including base 9 1/2 in., length 8 7/8 in.
