Facial Features


(continued)


This copy after another Degas portrait of the same individual will be used to further examine facial features. You will notice
that it is a very different view of the same model, and shows the same features from different angles. This is a very sculptural
view of the model’s head, as the light is strong from above and in front of the face, creating strong tonal contrast between the
front and side planes.
