A word to describe something very risky, suggestive or strange. The word Degas originates from the artist Edgar Degas who was one of the main artists from the Impressionist movement during the 1800's. Degas was famous for painting naked ladies - not nudes as such, as a nude is a naked woman in a pose, but a naked woman in her pure essence - a woman caught in pure honesty. He was also famous for painting risky subjects, namely prostitutes and brothel scenes. He schemed against Claude Monet and is inspired by Edouard Manet. Although he was a very strange character indeed, Degas was a very influential artist in the Impressionist movement.
