Degas created a considerable body of monotypes in the late 19th century. A number of them were reduced in size and recreated as original works in 1938 and again in 1948, of which our example is part. The verso bears the handstamp of Edgar Achille Gaston DeGas-Musson (1875-1953), the son of Estelle Angelina Musson DeGas and Jean Baptiste Rene DeGas (the brother of Edgar Degas). [29333-2-400]
