" Dancers Backstage Peeping " by Edgar Degas is a very popular paintings amongst his collection of paintings themed on ballet dancers.

Dancers Backstage depicts an informal, behind-the-scenes moment at the ballet—the type of scene that most intrigued Degas. Four figures occupy the painting: a dancer who stands onstage with her back to the viewer and a group of three figures who stand just offstage behind a painted stage flat.
