Edgar Degas's "Ukrainian Dancers" (1899) is a pastel drawing depicting three women in traditional Ukrainian dress engaged in a lively dance. Degas, renowned for his depictions of dancers, captures the energy and movement of the figures with loose, expressive strokes. The work is a testament to his interest in capturing fleeting moments of human action, a hallmark of his artistic style. This pastel artwork is a fine example of Degas's ability to portray both the grace and spontaneity of movement.
