The image showcases the renowned ballerina Marie Taglioni in her iconic role as La Sylphide, a character from one of the most beloved romantic ballets of all time. Marie Taglioni's ethereal beauty and graceful movements are beautifully captured in this print. Dressed in a delicate white tutu with gossamer wings adorning her back, she embodies the essence of a sylph - an otherworldly creature from Scottish folklore. Her elegant pose and serene expression exude an air of mystery and allure. The engraving is part of the private collection curated by Bridgeman Images, offering us a glimpse into the rich history and cultural significance of ballet during this era.
