Dancer Bowing (First State) 1873 - 1920

"Dancer Bowing (First State)" is a bronze sculpture by Edgar Degas, renowned for his depictions of dancers. This piece, created between 1873 and 1920, captures a dancer in mid-motion, her body contorted in a graceful bow. The rough, unfinished texture of the bronze adds a sense of immediacy and movement, typical of Degas's style. The sculpture is currently on display at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
