Degas – The Secret of the Frozen Movement

9–12 years · 48 pages

A movement seems to stop halfway through a step. Claudia examines the framing; Pia studies the posture. Isabelle recalls the dancers’ labour and the artist’s preparation. The apparently fleeting moment opens an investigation behind the stage.
