Edgar Degas' pastel drawing *Dancers in Green* from 1878 captures the grace and fluidity of ballet dancers. Degas was known for his depictions of dancers, often focusing on their movements and poses. The artwork showcases the dancers' elongated limbs and delicate tutus, rendered in soft, ethereal colors. Degas’ use of pastel allows for a loose and expressive style, capturing the ephemeral quality of dance. The artwork is a testament to Degas' mastery of depicting the human form in motion, emphasizing the dynamism and artistry of ballet.
