Dance Like a Butterfly: Adventures in Art

Edgar Degas (1834 - 1917) first became interested in ballet in the 1860s and spent years studying the movements of ballerinas. Some of his most famous paintings and sketches are reproduced here for children and aspiring dancers. Angela Wenzel is also the author of "Gustav Klimt: Silver, Gold and Precious Stones" and "Rene Magritte: Now You See It - Now You Don't".
