Rudolf Nureyev Pose 1961
Soviet born ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev poses 22 June 1961 at the Theatre des Champs Elyses in Paris where he will perform with the International Ballet of the Marquis de Cuevas. Nureyev studied at the Leningrad Choreographic School, and became a soloist with the Kirov Ballet. While touring with the Ballet in 1961, he obtained political asylum in Paris. Nureyevs virtuosity and expressiveness made him one of the greatest male dancers of the 1960 s, in both classical and modern ballets. He became ballet director of the Paris Opera in 1983. / AFP PHOTO

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the iconic ballet dancer Rudolf Nureyev in a moment of poise and elegance. Taken on 22 June 1961 at the Theatre des Champs Elyses in Paris, where he was set to perform with the International Ballet of the Marquis de Cuevas, this image showcases Nureyev's undeniable talent and charisma. Born in Soviet Russia, Nureyev honed his skills at the prestigious Leningrad Choreographic School before becoming a soloist with the renowned Kirov Ballet. However, it was during a tour with the company that he made a daring decision - seeking political asylum in Paris. This bold move allowed him to fully embrace his artistic freedom and showcase his virtuosity as both a classical and modern dancer. Nureyev's seated pose exudes confidence and grace, perfectly capturing his magnetic stage presence. His expressive eyes seem to convey an intense passion for dance that propelled him to become one of the greatest male dancers of his time. In addition to his remarkable performances on stage, Nureyev also left an indelible mark on ballet as he assumed the role of ballet director at the Paris Opera in 1983. This photograph serves as a timeless reminder of Nureyev's extraordinary talent and enduring legacy within the world of dance.
