His reputation as a loner in terms of his art style was mirrored somewhat in his social life, although he had a few close friends such as Manet, Renoir, Gaugin and Monet he was a lonely man remained unmarried and was never known to have had any love affairs.
Degas was born July 19, 1834 to a wealthy Parisian family.
Perhaps the difficulty in classifying Degas into a particular category of art is a consequence of the true genius of a man able to paint as a classicist, as an impressionist, as a realist and more, with a brilliant combination of them all to place him in a class of his own.

The complaint of having wretched pens, ink, and paper, as an excuse for careless or unintelligible writing, is a plea that ought never to be accepted from a young lady.
The edge of the quill should rather be held against the side of the thumb, so that the knife may pass clear off from the point; thus all danger of cutting the thumb is obviated.

 James McNeill Whistler
Although a contemporary of the Impressionists, Whistler walked his own path from the Realism of Courbet to an aesthetic approach of "Art for Art's Sake." As one of the first westerners to be influenced by the artistic tradition of Japan, Whistler developed an aesthetic response to living.
Before Whistler, the visitor to an art gallery would be confronted by a wall-full of paintings hung from baseboard to ceiling.
Whistler's debt to Japanese art, specifically Hiroshige, is apparent in the almost abstract span of the bridge.
