EDITORS COMMENTS
Josephine Baker: The Radiant Star of the Revue N Thompson, July 18, 1926. In this portrait, we find Josephine Baker, an African American dancer and singer, in the height of her fame as she graced the stage of the iconic Revue Nègre in Paris during the 1920s. The image, taken in 1926, showcases Baker's enchanting allure and undeniable charisma. Baker, who was born in St. Louis, Missouri, in 1906, began her professional career as a vaudeville performer in the United States before making her way to Europe in 1925. She quickly became a sensation in Paris, where she was discovered by the director of the Folies Bergère, who cast her in the Revue Nègre. The Revue Nègre was a groundbreaking production that showcased African and African American performers, and Baker's electrifying performances, which included the famous "Danse Sauvage," made her an instant sensation. She became a symbol of the Jazz Age and the "Black Venus," captivating audiences with her exotic allure and undeniable talent. This photograph captures Baker in her prime, with her expressive eyes, radiant smile, and elegant posture. Her costume, which features a feather headdress and a revealing banana skirt, emphasizes her sensuality and her connection to the African continent. The background, with its ornate gold trim and intricate patterns, adds to the opulence and glamour of the Revue Nègre. Baker's impact on the world of entertainment was significant, paving the way for future African American performers and challenging racial stereotypes. She continued to perform and entertain until her death in 1975, leaving behind a legacy that continues to inspire and captivate audiences around the world.
