Degas: Beyond Impressionism Details
This strikingly beautiful book-the first to focus on Degas` late work-presents a new and definitive view of his last decades. Degas played an integral role in reshaping the visual arts at the turn of the century, says Richard Kendall. The artist`s remarkable drawings, pastels, oil paintings, and sculptures involve startling explorations of color, unexpected combinations of technique and media, and a radical reexamination of the human physique.

Reviews
While reading this I had the feeling I was getting an introduction to what is for me Degas' most exciting and relevant work. Information I received was excellent, and most all was covered, But I wanted more; particularly in illustrations and his later monotypes. The later works were nicely covered in regard to the dancers and women bathing, many relevant areas such as the influence of photography was there, many words to read, but a feeling that much was missing in the way of illustration regarding color and later technique. This was basically a catalogue for an exhibition, and so there was good reason not to wander too far from what was at hand and it certainly serves this purpose, but the title "Degas: Beyond Impressionism " seemed to promise so much more.
