EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the grace and elegance of Elizabeth Miller in the role of Swanhilda from the classic ballet, Coppélia, performed by The Vic-Wells Ballet in 1937. Dressed in a beautiful, flowing white tutu and adorned with a delicate floral headpiece, Miller exudes a playful and enchanting presence as she gracefully leans on one pointed foot. The sepia tones of the image transport us back to the 1930s, evoking a sense of nostalgia and wonder. Elizabeth Miller was a prominent dancer with The Vic-Wells Ballet, which later became the Sadler's Wells Theatre Ballet and then the Royal Ballet. Her exceptional talent and captivating stage presence made her a favorite among audiences during the 1930s. In Coppélia, Miller's performance as Swanhilda, the mischievous and determined village girl, showcased her technical prowess and ability to bring charm and humor to her role. The Vic-Wells Ballet, under the direction of Ninette de Valois, was known for its innovative and groundbreaking productions. Coppélia, first performed in 1870, was one of the company's most beloved and enduring works. The ballet's lively and whimsical story, combined with the stunning performances of its dancers, made it a favorite among audiences during the 1930s and continues to be celebrated today. This photograph by Terry Parker is a testament to the beauty and artistry of ballet during the 1930s and the enduring talent of Elizabeth Miller as a dancer. It is a must-have for any collection of dance history or for those who appreciate the elegance and grace of the ballet art form.
