About the exhibition

Wildenstein and Co. presented Loan Exhibition of Degas for the Benefit of the Citizens’ Committee for Children of New York in 1960. The loan exhibition benefited the named children’s organization. The documented selection includes original prints by Edgar Degas, with individual catalogue numbers preserved. Exact surviving examples are Edgar Degas’s On Stage I (1876; soft-ground etching and drypoint on wove paper) and Edgar Degas’s The Green Room (c. 1876/1877; monotype (black ink) on laid paper mounted by the artist on heavy white wove paper). The surviving museum histories establish only part of the checklist; exact opening and closing days remain unverified.
