EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Fanny Elssler, Florinde" transports us back in time to the enchanting world of ballet. Created by Edwin Dalton Smith in the 19th century, this print showcases Fanny Elssler, a renowned Austrian ballerina who captivated audiences with her grace and talent. In this particular scene from Le Sage's ballet "The Devil on Two Sticks". Elssler embodies the character of Florinde. With delicate precision and fluid movements, she brings this fictional character to life on stage. Her expressive face reflects both vulnerability and strength as she executes each choreographed step flawlessly. Smith's meticulous attention to detail is evident in every line and shadow of this exquisite engraving. The intricate folds of Florinde's costume are beautifully rendered, adding depth and texture to the image. The composition itself captures a moment frozen in time - a glimpse into the artistry that lies within the world of dance. This print was originally featured in Charles Heath's publication "Beauties of the Opera and Ballet" around 1844. It serves as a testament to Elssler's enduring legacy as one of ballet's most celebrated performers. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of the timeless beauty found within classical ballet - an art form that continues to inspire awe and admiration today.
