The Dance Class – Edgar Degas (1874)
The Dance Class – Edgar Degas (1874) | Ballet-Inspired Art Wallpaper
Painted in 1874, The Dance Class is Degas at his most intimate—capturing a behind-the-scenes moment in a Paris ballet studio. Young dancers stretch, rest, and rehearse under the watchful eye of their teacher, while light spills across wooden floors and mirrors reflect both motion and stillness. It’s not performance—it’s preparation, and that’s where the magic lives.
Degas was fascinated by movement, and ballet gave him the perfect stage. He wasn’t painting applause; he was painting the discipline, the fatigue, the quiet poetry of routine. As wallpaper, The Dance Class brings a sense of elegance and subtle drama to interiors. Ideal for dressing rooms, creative spaces, or bedrooms with vintage or Parisian influences.
This wallpaper is based on the original public domain painting by Edgar Degas. It has been respectfully restored and adapted for large-scale interior use under a public domain license.

Wallpaper Samples
All samples are printed on our premium wallpaper stock—so what you get is exactly what goes on your wall. Our artwork is scaled to show as much of the design as possible in an A3 size.
How to Measure Your Walls
Only measure the area that will be covered—skip the baseboards, trim, or molding. Measure the full width and height at their widest and tallest points. Use a tape measure and jot down your numbers. For accuracy, add an extra 2-4 inches (5-10 cm) to both width and height when placing your order. This makes installation smoother. If your wallpaper extends across multiple adjacent walls, measure the total combined width as one continuous wall - do not treat them like separate walls or orders.
Installation
Your wallpaper comes with easy-to-follow instructions. Here's how it works:
STEP 1: PREP & LAY OUT
Cut the lengths at the marked symbols. Lay them out in numerical order, starting with length number one.
STEP 2: TIME TO HANG
For pasted wallpaper: roll the paste directly onto the wall. The panels are numbered left to right—hang from ceiling to floor, working from the center outward.
For Peel & Stick: just peel off the backing and apply it straight to the wall—no paste needed.
STEP 3: FINISHING TOUCHES
Trim any excess along the ceiling and floor. That’s it. You're done.
