by Edgar Degas, 1879
Edgar Degas painted this scene of a milliner's shop in 1879, showing women examining hats. The oil on canvas captures a fleeting moment of modern Parisian life with his characteristic unconventional angles and cropped compositions.
Degas created a series of millinery scenes, fascinated by the interplay between shopkeepers and customers in these intimate commercial spaces. His observation of contemporary urban life defined much of his work.
