EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the timeless beauty of Mademoiselle Marie Salle, a renowned French dancer and choreographer. Created in 1741 by Maurice Quentin de la Tour, this pastel on paper portrait captures the grace and elegance that made Salle an icon of her time. In this image, Mademoiselle Marie Salle is depicted seated, wearing a delicate bonnet adorned with lace and ribbon. Her crossed arms are folded gracefully as she exudes confidence and poise. The artist skillfully portrays her talent as a performer through his meticulous attention to detail. Salle was known for revolutionizing dance during her performances at Covent Garden in London. She daringly changed the traditional heavy dress worn by dancers to lightweight muslin material, allowing for greater freedom of movement on stage. This innovation solidified her reputation as a trailblazer in the world of dance. The photograph is housed at Museu Calouste Gulbenkian in Lisbon, Portugal, where it continues to captivate visitors with its exquisite portrayal of one of history's most influential dancers. With every glance at this remarkable piece of artistry, viewers are transported back to an era when Mademoiselle Marie Salle graced the stage with her extraordinary talent and forever left an indelible mark on the world of theater and performance.
