Trois danseuses, jupes jaunes is a 1896 oil by Edgar Degas, a Impressionism work, held at Hammer Museum.
This painting shows three ballerinas in a room. They are wearing red and blue tutus. The ballerina on the left is looking down. The one in the middle is looking up. The one on the right is looking down and holding her skirt. The background is red and orange. The painting is done in a style that makes it look blurry. It's like the artist didn't finish it. But that's what makes it interesting. You can see the brushstrokes and the colors blending together. If you like this painting, you might also like the work of Edgar Degas.
Born Hilaire-Germain-Edgar De Gas on 19 July 1834 in Paris, Edgar Degas came from an affluent banking family with aristocratic roots and spent his childhood among the cultivated circles of the French capital.
