Horse and Rider — Degas Pillow
Horse and Rider — Degas Pillow
Couldn't load pickup availability
Edgar Degas painted and sculpted horses and jockeys throughout his career, drawn to the racetrack as a modern subject that let him study animal and human movement with the same rigor he applied to ballet dancers. "Horse and Rider" reflects this enduring interest, often informed by the sequential photography of Eadweard Muybridge, which Degas studied closely to correct and refine his depictions of a horse's gait. Racing scenes form one of the four major subject groups — alongside ballet, bathers, and portraits — that define Degas's mature work.
Jacquard-woven both sides in soft, durable yarn; insert included.

The customer service here answered me on a Sunday. Every line in Horse and Rider is crisp, even in the busiest areas. It fits the primary bedroom like it was made for the space. An easy five stars from me…
The reproduction quality is the best I have seen anywhere near this price. I have wanted something by Degas since college, and Horse and Rider was the one to get. The whole order was smooth from checkout to unwrapping. I will absolutely be ordering from here again. 🙂
Everyone who walks in asks about it. The shading in Horse and Rider has a depth I never noticed in books. It has made the reading nook feel finished. 🙂
The detail is unbelievable for the price. Owning Horse and Rider means more to me than generic art ever could, and Degas is part of that. It survived a move from Ohio to Michigan in the back of a pickup. Ten out of ten from me.
Thank you. We spend a long time on the scans, so hearing that the detail came through means a lot.
This is the rare purchase that looks better in person than online. It has made me a repeat customer already…
