Need help in finding art images of Degas ballet dancers I can download

I want to download one of Degas many scenes of ballet dancers from the Internet but can't find one that gives permission. This is for the Art Wall in my little home office.

I have successfully done this with a Matisse, an O'Keefe, a Twombly, a Leonardo and a Monet.

The ballet dancer(s) belong with the other great masters!

I don't understand why the entire work of art pictured on my computer screen didn't print.

Here's a screenshot that shows how download the correct size:



If you choose "Medium" it will be smaller than 8 1/2" x 11" page but it will all fit.
If you choose "Large" it will run off the 8 1/2" x 11" page but it will fit on a A4 size sheet.

Also you can use an artwork program to adjust the size of the image. Almost all Windows computers have a program like Paint or something similar that give you options on sizing and placement of the image. I'm not familiar with Apple computers but I'm sure they have something similar.
