The Singer in Green ca. 1884 Edgar Degas French A sale catalogue of 1898 evocatively described the performer pictured in this pastel: "Skinny and with the graceful moves of a little monkey, she has just sung her ribald verses and, with a gesture that conceals an entreaty behind her smile, is inviting applause." With her small eyes, high cheeks, and low brow, the model recalls Marie von Goethem, the working-class girl who posed for Degass sculpture The Little Fourteen-Year-Old Dancer. The singers dress, rendered in vivid yellow, turquoise, and orange, reflects the artists experimentation with saturated hues and color contrasts in the mid-1880s.. The Singer in Green 436159
