Billiard Room at Ménil-Hubert 1892

Edgar Degas's "Billiard Room at Ménil-Hubert" (1892) is a pastel depiction of a billiard room in the Ménil-Hubert mansion in France. The scene, viewed from a low angle, emphasizes the perspective of the billiard table and the room's depth. Degas's Impressionist style, characterized by loose brushstrokes and muted colors, adds to the sense of casualness and immediacy. This work is a testament to Degas's fascination with depicting leisure activities of the upper class.
