Artist

Mourilyan & Casey

Mourilyan & Casey is a Romanticism artist. 1 work is cataloged here, principally at Victoria and Albert Museum.

They spent their days sketching in the back row of the Paris Opera, where the cheap tickets let them watch the dancers close up. At night, they’d trade those quick pencil lines for bold prints that made the ballet’s motion feel alive on paper. Find their Sketches at the Ballet pinned near the Edgar Degas prints, look for the way the ink catches the swirl of skirts and the flick of a foot off the floor.
