EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, Dame Ninette de Valois, born Edris Stannus, is seen in her prime during the 1930s, an era that marked the beginning of her illustrious career as a ballerina and later, a renowned dance innovator. Hailing from an Irish background, De Valois defied the stereotypes of her time by breaking into the male-dominated world of ballet, leaving an indelible mark on the dance scene. The image captures De Valois in an elegant pose, her graceful form poised in mid-movement, embodying the fluidity and elegance that would come to define her as one of the greatest ballerinas of the 20th century. The black-and-white photograph, with its high contrast and crisp detail, offers a glimpse into the past, transporting us back to a time when ballet was undergoing a significant transformation. De Valois' journey began when she was discovered by the legendary Sergei Diaghilev at the age of 15. She went on to dance with the Ballets Russes, before founding her own company, The Sadler's Wells Ballet, which later became the Royal Ballet. Her groundbreaking choreography and innovative approach to ballet paved the way for a new generation of dancers, cementing her place in dance history. This photograph serves as a testament to De Valois' unwavering dedication and passion for dance, which continued to inspire and influence generations of dancers and audiences alike. The image, with its timeless beauty and historical significance, is a reminder of the enduring power of the arts to captivate and transform.
