The fame of Dietz Edzard begins in the Paris of the Belle Epoque. After painting the terror of the 1914-1918 war, his palette changed radically to become anchored in the post-impressionist movement. Critics of the thirties appreciate its vaporous and pastel touch, reminiscent of the work of Edgar Degas. His elegant portraits of opera ladies and ballerinas are a great success with an American clientele, which will be internationally recognized.
