"To studier af danserinder" is a pencil drawing by Edgar Degas, dating from 1878–1880. It depicts two ballerinas in quick sketches, capturing the fleeting movement of their bodies. The upper figure is posed en pointe, while the lower figure is bent forward, seen from the back. This work exemplifies Degas's fascination with the human form in motion, particularly in the context of dance. The artist's distinctive use of line and gesture creates a dynamic and evocative composition. This drawing is now housed in the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst.
