EDITORS COMMENTS
This striking portrait captures the essence of Margaret Morris, a groundbreaking figure in the world of dance during the 1920s. The image, taken at the Margaret Morris Theatre in Chelsea, London, in 1923, showcases Morris in the midst of performing her iconic number, "The Goldfish." At the height of her career, Morris was known for her innovative approach to dance, blending elements of classical ballet, modern dance, and jazz into her unique style. Born in 1891, Morris was a pioneer in the dance world, opening her own dance school in London in 1911 and later founding the Margaret Morris Dance and Movement Centre in 1921. Her unconventional methods and emphasis on natural movement set her apart from her contemporaries, and she became a muse for artists and writers of the time. In "The Goldfish," Morris donned an elaborate costume, complete with a fish-like headdress and flowing fabric, as she gracefully moved across the stage. The number was a hit, showcasing Morris's ability to captivate audiences with her fluid movements and expressive face. This photograph is a testament to Morris's enduring legacy as a trailblazer in the dance world. Her influence can still be felt today, with many contemporary dance companies drawing inspiration from her innovative techniques and groundbreaking approach to movement.
