Edgar Degas: Dance like a Butterfly

32 pp. | Prestel | June, 2002 | Trade ISBN 3-7913-2736-4 $$14.95
(4) 4-6 Adventures in Art series. Degas concentrates on the artist's depictions of dancers, providing information about the models and the artist's techniques. Klee seems intended for a younger audience, presenting the artist's animal paintings and transfers using conversational questions to the audience, but occasionally states as fact something that is the author's speculation. The books are heavily illustrated, but the reproductions are not uniformly clear. A short biography is included on the last pages of each book. [Review covers these Adventures in Art titles: Edgar Degas and Paul Klee.]
