EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative Art Deco sketch by Guiseppe Peres captures the essence of the jazz age in London during the 1920s. The image, dated 1922, depicts a scene in a grand ballroom where fashionably dressed women come to the aid of a forlorn male dancer. The man, with a crestfallen expression, sits on the edge of the dance floor, likely having just taken a few lessons in the latest and most complex dance craze of the time - the tango. The women, dressed in the height of 1920s fashion, surround him with concern and encouragement. Their elegant attire, featuring dropped waistlines, fringed flapper dresses, and intricate beading, reflects the opulence and glamour of the era. The women's faces are a mix of sympathy and determination, as they prepare to help their hapless companion get back on his feet and back onto the dance floor. The scene is filled with a sense of camaraderie and the shared joy of dancing, which was a popular pastime during the 1920s. The Art Deco style, with its bold geometric shapes and rich colors, adds to the overall sense of excitement and energy. This illustration, by renowned artist Guiseppe Peres, is a beautiful representation of the spirit of the 1920s and the enduring appeal of jazz, dancing, and the magic of the ballroom.
