At the Milliner's Artist: Edgar Degas (French, Paris 1834–1917 Paris) Date: 1881 Medium: Pastel on five pieces of wove paper, backed with paper, and laid down on canvas Dimensions: 27 1/4 x 27 1/4 in. (69.2 x 69.2 cm) Classification: Pastels & Oil Sketches on Paper Credit Line: The Walter H. and Leonore Annenberg Collection, Gift of Walter H. and Leonore Annenberg, 1997, Bequest of Walter H. Annenberg, 2002 Accession Number: 1997.391.1 Gallery Label: Two customers in nearly identical dresses—perhaps a mother and daughter or two sisters—are seen from behind in a millinery shop. This pastel may have been conceived originally as a picture of a shopgirl (at left) adjusting a hat on a stand. However, once Degas drew the woman underneath the hat at the right and added the back of the sofa, the identity of the figure at the left was transformed; shopgirls were not allowed to sit.

It may have been conceived as a picture of a shopgirl (at left) adjusting a hat on a stand. However, once Degas drew the woman underneath the hat at the right and added the back of the sofa, the identity of the figure at the left was transformed, as shopgirls were not allowed to sit. Thus the picture became one of two friends or sisters. Text from: www.metmuseum.org/Collections/search-the-collections/1100...
