Description
English: The art critic Émile Durand-Gréville (1838–1914) was perhaps not one of the more prominent writers in Paris in the late 1800s. He became friends with Degas in the 1870s. Little is known concerning their relationship. Degas portrays Durand-Gréville en face – frontally. This portrait is presumably a sketch, since the background is far from completed and the work is unsigned. Degas mainly painted portraits of his family, friends, contemporary writers, artists and other cultural celebrities. Portraits make up about one-fifth of his entire output.
Svenska: Konstkritikern Émile Durand-Gréville (1838-1914) tillhörde inte de mest framstående skribenterna i 1800-talets Paris. Han lärde känna Degas på 1870-talet. Mycket lite är känt om deras relation. Degas skildrar Durand-Gréville en face – framifrån. Mycket tyder på att porträttet är en skiss då bakgrunden verkar långt ifrån slutförd och det är osignerat. Degas målade framförallt porträtt av familj, vänner, samtida författare, konstnärer och andra kulturpersonligheter. Porträtt utgör ungefär en femtedel av hans totala produktion.
