Here's Austrian-born Fanny Elssler in her role as Florinda in the dance La Cachucha from the 1836 Coralli/Gide ballet Le Diable boiteux in Paris, France in 1836.
This print is from a volume of legendary performance artists and dancers published in the Seventies.
'Fanny Elssler ' measures 8" x 10.75" overall with her white border; the print itself is 6" x 8." Fanny's printed on heavy quality paper with a soft matte finish. she's clean, smooth, and flat with firm edges. There's another pair of dancers printed within the text on the backside.
Matted, framed, and displayed as a gallery grouping, these lovely dancer book prints are simply spectacular. (Please note that the framed examples in the last photo are just to show how this might look when it's framed. Your pretty print will come to you unmatted and unframed.)
