This volume of Facture, a biennial journal that presents the latest conservation research on works of art at the National Gallery of Art, Washington, focuses exclusively on conservation treatment, technical art history, and scientific research related to masterpieces by the beloved French artist Edgar Degas (18341917). The National Gallerys extraordinary collection of sculptures, paintings, and works on paper by Degas, including an incomparable group of his wax sculpturesamong them his iconic Little Dancer Aged Fourteenallows the institution to contribute significantly to understanding the artists methods and intentions. This volume features discussions of the notion of finish in Degass paintings, the complex makeup of his wax sculptures, the casting of posthumous bronzes, his innovative use of multiple layers of pastel and fixative in a late work on paper, and even a sonnet that Degas wrote to his little dancer.
