EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Marie-Adeline Plunkett, a renowned star of the Romantic ballet in the 19th century. Painted by Richard Buckner in 1854, this oil painting showcases Plunkett's grace and elegance as she strikes a pose reminiscent of Mercury, the classical statue found in Florence's Uffizi Gallery. Marie-Adeline Plunkett began her illustrious career at Her Majesty's Theatre in London back in 1843. However, her time with the company came to an abrupt end due to a scandalous incident involving a fellow dancer who was also vying for the affections of the Earl of Pembroke. In this artwork, Buckner skillfully portrays Plunkett's beauty and talent as she stands barefoot and dressed in an exquisite gown. The vibrant colors bring life to every detail, highlighting her delicate features and capturing her poise as a ballet dancer. Displayed at Birmingham Museum and Art Gallery, this piece is part of their extensive collection that celebrates heritage art from various eras. It serves as a reminder not only of Marie-Adeline Plunkett's contribution to the world of dance but also of Richard Buckner's artistic prowess. As we admire this stunning portrait today, we are transported back to a time when ballet held great allure and fascination. Through his brushstrokes, Buckner immortalizes Marie-Adeline Plunkett’s legacy while paying homage to classical artistry that continues to inspire generations.
