EDITORS COMMENTS
This etching showcases the enchanting presence of American dancer Doris Niles in the midst of an exotic performance, circa 1930. With a flowing, vibrant dancing dress and a poised, expressive stance, Doris exudes a sense of grace and allure. Having moved to Spain in the late 1920s, she quickly gained recognition and the opportunity to perform for the royal court of King Alfonso XIII and Queen Victoria Eugenia between 1927 and 1928. This image, entitled 'Doris Niles Dancing,' is a testament to her artistic talent and the cultural exchange that flourished during this time. The etching was created by renowned artist Alex Reid Lefevre, who expertly captured Doris's essence and the dynamic energy of her dance. Lefevre's mastery of the medium is evident in the intricate details and the play of light and shadow, which bring the image to life. This artwork, part of the March of the Women Collection from Mary Evans Prints Online, is a precious piece of history that showcases the artistry and influence of Doris Niles and the rich cultural exchange between Spain and America during the early 20th century. Permission for the use of this image has been granted by Troy Kinney on behalf of the Mary Evans Picture Library. This artwork is not to be used for commercial purposes and is intended for personal or educational use only.
