The Met Store Scarves & Wraps*Degas Dancers Silk Neckerchief

Gift her an art scarf inspired by The Met collection. Lend an artful touch to any look with this stylish silk neckerchief featuring Dancers, Pink and Green (ca. 1890) by Edgar Degas (French, 1834–1917). This vivid oil painting in The Met collection affords a privileged view of dancers waiting in the wings of the famed Paris Opéra during a performance. The painting’s heavily impastoed surface suggests that Degas worked directly and extensively on this picture; the artist created an opaque quality by mixing his colors with white and applying the pigments in multiple thick layers, recalling the pastel technique that he perfected in the previous decade.
