Degas Dance Class Zip Pouch
Art-inspired gifts, only from The Met.
Edgar Degas (French, 1834–1917) painted this ambitious figural composition in 1874. The Dance Class, now in The Met collection, pictures some 24 women—ballerinas and their mothers—waiting as a dancer executes an attitude for her examination by the ballet master Jules Perrot. Degas prepared for this picture with countless drawings made in his studio while dancers posed for him.
We present this stylish accessory in celebration of Manet/Degas, an examination of the close albeit tumultuous relationship between Manet and Edgar Degas (French, 1834–1917). These two highly influential artists were friends, rivals, and, at times, antagonists who worked to define modern painting in 19th-century France. By surveying their careers in parallel and showcasing their work side by side, this exhibition investigates how their artistic objectives and approaches both overlapped and diverged. Through more than 150 paintings and works on paper from The Met collection and beyond, Manet/Degas, on view at The Met Fifth Avenue from September 24, 2023 through January 7, 2024, explores one of the most significant artistic dialogues in modern art history.
