Before ballet and modern Parisian life became his central preoccupation, Edgar Degas established himself as a skilled portraitist, producing double and group portraits that captured the individual character of each sitter rather than flattering convention. "Portrait of Mme Lisle and Mme Loubens" reflects this early strength, showing two women rendered with the psychological acuity and compositional care that Degas carried forward into his more famous later work. His portraits remain admired for their unsentimental honesty and formal rigor.
Jacquard-woven as a soft, double-sided tapestry throw with fringed edges — a warm layer for the sofa or bed.

I have already recommended this shop to three people. The clarity of Portrait of Mme Lisle makes it look like the original was photographed yesterday.
This was a gift for my sister and she called me the day it arrived… ✨
The colors are richer in person than they look on a screen. Everything in this house is secured for earthquakes and this has stayed put through two small ones. Perfect from start to finish.
The quality is fine and the wait was the real problem. I bought this for Portrait of Mme Lisle and the subject is still the best part of it. The picture is nice enough and it softens if you look closely. It fills the space and that is the whole story.
It has completely changed how the hallway feels. The brushwork in Portrait of Mme Lisle shows exactly why Degas has the reputation. It came with a handwritten thank you that made the whole thing feel personal. I am thrilled with the whole experience.
