EDITORS COMMENTS
- Circa 1830: A Captivating Glance into the Past of the Waltz This enchanting lithograph, titled "La Valse," transports us back in time to an outdoor dance hall in France, circa 1830. The image captures the essence of two dancers gracefully performing the valse, a dance that was both popular and subject to much mockery and derision during this era. The valse, an early form of the waltz, was a revolutionary dance that broke away from the rigid formalities of the ballroom. Dancers twirled around each other, often in close embrace, causing quite a stir among the conservative society of the time. This sensational dance was a frequent subject of satire and ridicule, as depicted in this series of lithographs entitled "Les Ridicules." The outdoor setting of the dance hall adds to the charm and allure of the scene. The dappled sunlight filters through the trees, casting dappled shadows on the ground, while the dancers, oblivious to their surroundings, are lost in the moment. Their fluid movements and synchronized steps are a testament to the captivating power of the dance. The intricate details of the lithograph, from the folds of the dancers' costumes to the textures of the trees and the dance hall floor, bring the image to life. It is a fascinating glimpse into the history of the waltz, a dance that was once both celebrated and criticized, and a reminder of the enduring appeal of dance as a form of expression and connection. This beautiful lithograph, from the extensive collection of Mary Evans Picture Library, offers a captivating glimpse into the past, allowing us to appreciate the history and evolution of dance in a unique and engaging way.
