ARTBURO | DIOR DIOREVER COLLECTION | EDGAR DEGAS

Degas was born in Paris, France, the eldest of five children of Célestine Musson De Gas and Augustin De Gas, a banker. The family was moderately wealthy. At age eleven, Degas (as a young man he abandoned the more pretentious spelling of the family name) began his schooling with enrollment in the Lycée Louis-le-Grand, graduating in 1853 with a baccalauréat in literature.

Degas began to paint seriously early in his life. By eighteen he had turned a room in his home into an artist's studio, and had begun making copies in the Louvre, but his father expected him to go to law school. Degas duly registered at the Faculty of Law of the University of Paris in November 1853, but made little effort at his studies there.

In 1855, Degas met Jean Auguste Dominique Ingres, whom he revered, and was advised by him to "draw lines, young man, many lines."

In April of that same year, Degas received admission to the Ecole des Beaux-Arts, where he studied drawing with Louis Lamothe, under whose guidance he flourished, following the style of Ingres.

In July 1856, Degas traveled to Italy, where he would remain for the next three years. There he drew and painted copies after Michelangelo, Raphael, Titian, and other artists of the Renaissance, often selecting from an altarpiece an individual head which he treated as a portrait.

It was during this period that Degas studied and became accomplished in the techniques of high, academic, and classical art.

DIOREVER

The new Dior bag, a new lifestyle Diorever… reversible: a flap to reflect your unique style and personality.

Diorever… forever Dior: a crest-shaped clasp to make a bold and contemporary statement. Diorever… everyday: a tote that adapts to your mood and style each day.

How much Dior handbags can you collect? How much do you already have in your wardrobe? There is actually one more bag that you should put on your wish list for the next season – the Dior Diorever Tote Bag.

This bag is absolutely to-die-for. I would name it the Diorama Tote Bag, but Dior rather gives it a distinctive name – it’s a totally different bag, though the crest-shaped clasp might look the same as the one your recognize on the Diorama Bag…but this is a tote bag.

Covered in durable leather (for now only in calfskin), completely handmade, you will love the experience. The bag comes with two top handles, the side of the flap is embellished with two (circular) buttons of which we believe is a snap-button to close the bag.
