Hi Arnaugir! According to the NGA's page on this painting it's oil on canvas. I've fixed that now. Mabalu (talk) 01:32, 24 February 2016 (UTC)

Picture of the day

The Dance Lesson is an oil on canvas painting by the French artist Edgar Degas created around 1879. The first of a series of paintings by Degas in a horizontal, frieze-like format, it draws some inspiration from Japanese prints in its positioning of dancers and musical instruments. It is currently kept at the National Gallery of Art in Washington, D.C.Painting: Edgar Degas
