EDITORS COMMENTS
In this intriguing photograph, six members of the Ballet Montmartre pose for Hungarian artist Jean-Georges Simon during their tour of the United Kingdom in 1945. The image captures a moment of playful interaction between the dancers and the artist, as they strike various poses for their portrait. The Ballet Montmartre was a popular all-French Variety Bill that entertained audiences across the country, bringing a taste of European flair to post-war Britain. However, there was a delightful twist to this troupe - the dancers were not actually French, but rather English girls who had mastered the art of French dance and adopted the personas of their European counterparts. This charming deception added an extra layer of allure and excitement to their performances. The photograph was taken in Harrogate, a popular spa town in Yorkshire, where the Ballet Montmartre had stopped as part of their tour. The dancers' elegant costumes, complete with feathers and sequins, are reminiscent of the can-can and other risqué dance styles that were popular during the 1940s. Jean-Georges Simon, a talented Hungarian artist, skillfully captured the essence of each dancer's character in his drawing, creating a work of art that beautifully encapsulates the spirit of the Ballet Montmartre and the playful nature of their performances. This photograph is a fascinating snapshot of a bygone era, showcasing the artistry, wit, and ingenuity of the dancers and the artist alike.
