The Pas de Trois des Graces,
EDITORS COMMENTS
a captivating ballet performance at Her Majesty's Theatre in London during the 1850 season, is immortalized in this stunning photograph by Smyth. The image features three renowned ballerinas of the time - Amalia Ferraris, Maria Taglioni, and Carlotta Grisi - gracefully executing one of the most felicitous poses of Les Graces. Amalia Ferraris, an Italian dancer, is depicted on the left, her lithe form poised in an elegant arabesque. Maria Taglioni, the Comtesse de Voisins, is in the center, her body slightly bent, her eyes closed in concentration as she balances on the tips of her toes. On the right, Carlotta Grisi, another Italian dancer, is captured mid-leap, her arms outstretched, adding a dynamic element to the tableau. The photograph was published in the Illustrated London News, providing a glimpse into the entertainment world of the Victorian era. Paul Taglioni, the father of Maria Taglioni, was the choreographer of the production, and his influence is evident in the graceful and fluid movements of his daughters and Ferraris. This photograph is a testament to the artistry and skill of these three remarkable women, who captivated audiences with their performances and left an indelible mark on the history of ballet. The image, with its timeless beauty and elegance, continues to enchant viewers more than a century later.
