EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases four renowned ballerinas of the 19th century, Carlotta Grisi, Marie Taglioni, Lucille Grahn, and Fanny Cerito, as they gracefully perform The Celebrated Pas de Quatre at Her Majesty's Theatre in London on July 12, 1845. The ballet, composed by Jules Perrot, is depicted on a music sheet, with each dancer poised in elegant poses. Carlotta Grisi, dressed in a pink bodice and full, flowing skirt, exudes confidence and grace as she strikes a pose. Marie Taglioni, with her delicate, flowing white skirt, adds an ethereal quality to the scene. Lucille Grahn, in a fitted bodice and full skirt, smiles brightly, while Fanny Cerito, in a muslin skirt and holding a rose, adds a touch of femininity to the performance. The Celebrated Pas de Quatre was a groundbreaking ballet of its time, featuring four principal female dancers in a single piece. The ballerinas' costumes, with their intricate designs and flowing fabrics, were a testament to the artistic innovation and elegance of the Victorian era. The image captures a moment in history, a snapshot of the early days of ballet and the extraordinary women who made it their own. Jules Perrot's composition, with its intricate steps and harmonious music, set the stage for a mesmerizing performance. The ballerinas' poised poses and radiant smiles speak to the joy and beauty of dance, a timeless art form that continues to captivate audiences today.
