In the early 1890s, Edgar Degas experimented briefly with monotype landscapes, working from memory rather than on-the-spot observation to produce moody, atmospheric scenes quite different from his usual urban and theatrical subjects. "Landscape with Smokestacks" reflects this short but intense period of experimentation, in which industrial forms emerge from smudged, painterly fields of color applied directly to a printing plate. These landscape monotypes are now recognized as an important, if lesser-known, chapter in Degas's restless technical innovation.
Printed edge to edge on a soft, durable woven area rug with a comfortable, non-slip feel.

The cream matches what I saw on my monitor closely enough. There is more going on in Landscape with Smokestacks than I noticed on the website. It looks more expensive than what I paid for it. It gave the mudroom the anchor it was missing.
This made the whole team smile. Thank you for taking the time, and enjoy it.
It landed on my porch in perfect condition two days early. The texture in Landscape with Smokestacks makes Degas feel present in the room. The deep blue sits perfectly against the paint we already had.
I kept checking the tracking because I could not wait for it to get here. 😍
The subject alone sold me and the execution sealed it. It made it through hurricane season on the coast with no problems at all. Worth every dollar and then some.
I have bought three of these now for different rooms. My daughter recognized Landscape with Smokestacks from her art class and was thrilled.
