"The world was changing. Paris was alive" begins Friedman's spare text, which follows Edgar Degas as he observes and records "life in motion." At each stop--a milliner's, a laundry, the racetrack, and the Opera House--related Degas reproductions are integrated into the story. This practical introduction to the artist's (and Impressionism's) fascination with everyday modern life includes lively, finely rendered cityscapes.
