EDITORS COMMENTS
This color plate, taken from Frances H. Low's esteemed book "Queen Victoria's Dolls," showcases an enchanting moment in the world of 19th-century dolls and ballet. The image features two exquisitely crafted dolls representing the renowned clown Monsieur Musard and the graceful ballerina Mlle. Leontine Heberle, characters from the ballet "Daphnis and Cephise." The dolls, dressed in intricately designed outfits, were once owned by the young Princess Victoria. Monsieur Musard, with his vibrant red and white striped suit, oversized shoes, and exaggerated features, embodies the essence of a classic clown. His companion, Mlle. Leontine, is depicted in a beautiful ballet costume, adorned with satin and silk, and a flowing tulle skirt. The ballerina's pose, with one leg gracefully lifted, exudes elegance and poise. The dolls were dressed by the young Princess Victoria, who was known for her deep interest in dolls and toys. The dolls were not only cherished playthings but also served as a source of inspiration and creativity for the future Queen. The illustration, created by Alan Wright, masterfully captures the essence of these enchanting dolls, transporting us back in time to the Victorian era. The intricate details of their outfits, the lifelike expressions on their faces, and the overall charm of the scene make this color plate a true treasure for collectors, historians, and anyone with a passion for the history of dolls and ballet.
