From the late 1860s onwards, Degas followed the dancers of the Opera during classes and regular training, in the limelight and even behind the scenes, assisting not only with their work, but also
with their rest. In his studies in pastel and in wax, he deepens his research on their movements, focusing on places such as rehearsal rooms and dressing rooms where he can observe their daily lives.
The so-called "Jacomet stencil" process combines two techniques: the phototype and colour stencil, which allows for an unparalleled reproduction true to the work of an artist.
