EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Woman Ironing" by Edgar Degas showcases the artist's deep fascination with capturing the movements of dancers and the specialized gestures of laundresses. Painted in 1873, this oil canvas measures 21 3/8 x 15 1/2 inches (54.3 x 39.4 cm) and is a testament to Degas' mastery as a French painter. In this composition, we are presented with three versions of the same scene, each depicting a different stage in the ironing process. The woman is silhouetted against a luminous white backdrop, creating a dramatic chiaroscuro effect that adds depth and intensity to the painting. Degas' attention to detail is evident in his portrayal of the woman's posture and concentration as she meticulously irons her garments. The repetitive nature of her task is beautifully captured through his brushstrokes, revealing both her dedication and skill. Through this artwork, Degas invites us into an intimate moment from everyday life, shedding light on the often overlooked laborious work carried out by women during that era. It serves as a reminder of their strength and resilience. The Liszt Collection has expertly reproduced this masterpiece by Artokoloro for art enthusiasts to appreciate its beauty for years to come.
