Edgar Degas frequently depicted the theaters and café-concerts of Paris, drawn to the artificial glow of stage and gas lighting as a technical challenge distinct from the natural daylight favored by many Impressionist landscape painters. "Singers on the Stage" captures performers under this dramatic lighting, using bold cropping and unusual vantage points borrowed from photography to convey the immediacy of a live performance. Degas's theater works form an important counterpart to his ballet subjects within his broader study of Parisian performance culture.

Jacquard-woven as a soft, double-sided tapestry throw with fringed edges — a warm layer for the sofa or bed.
