Three elegantly dressed African American ladies gracefully perform the cake walk, a popular social dance of the time, before an enthusiastic audience. The ladies, adorned in their finest attire, display the poise and grace that characterized this dance. The cake walk originated from the antebellum South and was often featured at social gatherings and fairs. The name of the dance came from the prize given to the winner, which was a cake.
