Features: This book is one of the "Discovery Tour" series. Along with "Monet" and "Renoir," published around the same time, it serves as an introduction to the great masters of 19th-century Impressionist painting. He employed various painting techniques, particularly excelling in color. The book is richly illustrated, showcasing his lifelong curiosity for techniques and his relentless pursuit of new expressive methods, like an obvious and continuous melody. Degas said, "I want to be radiant yet mysterious." Indeed, he was radiant, but through his paintings of ballerinas, horse riders, and the diverse lifestyles and movements of women, he remained mysterious. As you browse through the entire book, this sense will naturally arise.
