EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print captured by Victor Blackman in 1961, we witness a poignant moment between two legendary figures of the ballet world. Dame Margot Fonteyn, the epitome of grace and elegance, bids farewell to her dear friend and dance partner Rudolph Nureyev at the door of her Hammersmith home. The date is etched into history - October 25th, 1961. The image exudes an air of bittersweetness as these iconic dancers part ways. Their undeniable chemistry on stage has enthralled audiences worldwide, making them synonymous with ballet excellence during the mid-20th century. As they stand together one last time before their paths diverge, there is a palpable sense of admiration and respect shared between them. Dame Margot Fonteyn's poise and beauty are evident even in this candid moment. Her eyes reflect both fondness for Nureyev and perhaps a tinge of sadness at his departure. Meanwhile, Nureyev stands tall beside her; his strong presence mirroring his reputation as a revolutionary force within the ballet community. This photograph serves as a testament to their extraordinary talent and enduring friendship that transcended cultural boundaries during an era marked by artistic exploration. It captures not just a fleeting goodbye but also encapsulates the essence of their partnership - one that pushed boundaries, challenged conventions, and left an indelible mark on ballet history. Victor Blackman's lens immortalizes this intimate scene forever
