Degas was not so much interested in depicting nature, but was mainly attracted by different color tones, with which he could achieve an almost dreamlike atmosphere in his nature paintings. There are no people in his landscape paintings; the scenes in the paintings are unusually sensuous color impressions caught in passing.
