Edgar Degas House Original Painting

Degas was born in Paris, France into a moderately wealthy family. He was the oldest of five children of Célestine Musson De Gas, a Creole from New Orleans and Augustin De Gas, a banker. Degas House is where Edgar Degas lived with his maternal relatives, the Mussons in New Orleans, and is the only Edgar Degas home or studio in the world open to the public. In this house, Degas created 18 paintings, 4 drawings, and 5 letters. Degas House has been distinguished by the French Ministry of Culture and is included in the French National Order of Arts and Letters. It is listed on the National Register of Historic Places. Edgar Degas was the only great French painter of the Impressionist generation who traveled to the United States and painted what he saw there.
