Danseuse de corde 

"Danseuse de corde" is a pastel drawing by Berthe Morisot, a prominent Impressionist painter. The work depicts a female performer balancing on a tightrope, her figure elongated and graceful. Morisot captures the fleeting moment of the performance with loose, expressive strokes and pastel washes, creating a sense of movement and atmosphere. The background suggests a performance setting, with the audience visible in the lower left corner. Morisot's interest in capturing contemporary life and women's experiences is evident in this piece, reflecting the themes and style of Impressionism.
