painting early on and had his own studio by the time he
turned eighteen. These 2013 Degas calendars focus on
his paintings of ballet dancers. He was a known artist
during his lifetime, but became even more renowned in the
afterlife. Edgar Degas passed away in 1917. He
had just begun to gain acceptance as one of the foremost
