I saw the original Degas at the MFA in Boston, November 2011 and still have the catalogue. The MFA had a similar Degas pastel, <b><i>La Toilette</i></b> reproduced at twenty feet high, huge, towering over the immense open food court, irony above the tables of eaters. It inspired a quick observation poem. <br><br><b>No Privacy</b><br>While everyone ate <br>she excused herself <br>to wash up, big time.<br><br><br />Thank you for your lovely comments regarding my amaryllis watercolors on my art blog, another 30 Paintings in 30 Days painter. (When posting comments I use this pseudonym.) If you'd like to email me directly (follow the Google link) and I'll send you a JPG image of <b><i>Woman at Her Toilette, Drying Her Left Foot</i></b> suitable for posting.<br /><br />Art Mainehttps://www.blogger.com/profile/04992277948946445918noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534337741969265357.post-7228513422042181722014-01-11T03:28:04.779-05:002014-01-11T03:28:04.779-05:00Thank you Fay and Susan, this challenge has kickst...Thank you Fay and Susan, this challenge has kickstarted the year for me and I so appreciate your checking in!Anne Winthrop Cordinhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/01090510625087699026noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-7534337741969265357.post-23223136489817737292014-01-10T14:05:04.276-05:002014-01-10T14:05:04.276-05:00Always loved this painting.
