Degas's Paintings | Painters' Paintings: From Freud to Van Dyck | The National Gallery, London

Edgar Degas is famous as a founder of Impressionism but he was also a major collector of art. Anne Robbins, the curator of the National Gallery exhibition ‘Painters’ Paintings’ and Ann Dumas of the Royal Academy, discuss this little-known aspect of the artist’s life in the context of his pursuit of the fragments of Edouard Manet’s ‘The Execution of Maximilian’; one of the masterpieces featured in ‘Painters’ Paintings: From Freud to Van Dyck’.
