I asked about dimensions before ordering and had a clear answer within the hour. I have seen Retiring Edgar in books for twenty years and this is the first version that felt right. The dry air in Denver has not done anything to it at all. Full marks from this household.
We put the blanket in the home office the night it came and the space finally makes sense. Nobody walks past Retiring Edgar without stopping. My only regret is not ordering it a year ago.
It looks great in daylight and a little flat under our lamps at night. I looked at three sellers before choosing this Degas, and Retiring Edgar was the right call.
The store did answer my questions, just slowly. Scale on Retiring Edgar works, and the finish does not. Not a disaster, not a win.
This cost less than the two other options I was weighing and it beat both of them. The blues in Retiring Edgar match what I remember from seeing the Degas in person. This is coming with us to the next house.
