Best Answer

Degas' sculptures of hundreds of Ballet dancers must be examined in pairs, or groups. Degas' relationship with Edouard Manet throughout the 1860s was seminal to Degas' approach to theatre, theatrical props, scenery and, most of all, the youngest and most callipygian dancers, first, in performance, then moreso, in repose, at more and more oblique, secretive, oblique and perhaps illicit angles.

Degas would sculpt one of his models face front, in a colloquial pose, then, more and more onward into the depth of his imagery, from further and further away from the 'consciousness', awareness, or perhaps, even permission of the model.

I don't say 'girl' in any of these referents, for I believe androgyny to be a powerful motivator in Degas' views of the loss of humanity and the development of the model as prop, scenery or even colour of what Degas believed to be the soul of performing art.
