Degas by Georges Charensol, 1959 - Vintage Art Book

A beautiful vintage art book celebrating the life and work of Edgar Degas, first published in Britain in 1959 by Oldbourne Press. Bound in a wonderfully tactile oatmeal linen cloth with a simple gilt title label, it feels every bit as elegant as the artist it celebrates.

Inside are beautifully reproduced colour and black-and-white illustrations of Degas’ most celebrated works, accompanied by thoughtful text exploring his life, technique and enduring influence. Whether displayed on a coffee table, styled on a bookshelf or slowly enjoyed with a cup of tea, it’s a timeless addition to the home of any art lover.

A lovely piece for those who find inspiration in old books just as much as the paintings they hold.

Vintage condition: In lovely vintage condition with gentle signs of age to the linen boards, consistent with its 1959 publication. The pages are clean, bright and well preserved.
