EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the essence of the Roaring Twenties as it showcases the Dancing Team of Moss and Fontana, performing an intricate figure in the popular Tango dance style at a London theatre in 1919. Marjorie Moss and Georges Fontana, two renowned dancers of the era, are seen in mid-movement, their bodies intertwined in a graceful and rhythmic display of agility and passion. The image is a testament to the vibrant and energetic spirit of the Jazz Age, a time when dance halls and ballrooms were the epicenters of social life. Despite the popularity of the Corte, or the traditional Tango closing figure, this photograph features a lesser-known figure that M. Fontana particularly enjoyed. The figure, which somewhat resembles the Huite or Eight, is danced while turning round and adds an extra layer of complexity to the already intricate dance. The image exudes an air of sophistication and excitement, transporting us back to a time when dance was an art form that brought people together and fueled their imagination. The photograph is a rare glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of dance during the 1920s and the unique partnership between Moss and Fontana. It is an exhibition piece that continues to captivate audiences with its timeless beauty and the energy of the era it represents.
