About Degas Degas was born in Paris, France, the eldest of five children of Celestine Musson De Gas, a Creole from New Orleans, and Augustine De Gas, a banker. The family was moderately wealthy. His mother died when Degas was thirteen, after which his father and grandfather were the main influences on his early life. At age eleven, Degas (in adulthood he abandoned the more pretentious spelling of the family name) began his schooling with enrollment in the Lychee Louis-le-Grand, graduating in 1853 with a baccalaureate in literature.
