EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the youthful exuberance and vibrant energy of Oyra and Dorma Leigh, two talented dancers who made their mark on the London stage during the jazz age. The photograph, taken in 1914, showcases the sisters in their prime, with Oyra on the left, her expressive face framed by a bobbed hairstyle and a knowing smile, while Dorma, on the right, gazes intently at the camera with a look of determination and focus. The sisters were known for their innovative and dynamic performances in London's bustling jazz scene, which was in full swing during the early 1900s. They graced the stages of various theatres and ballrooms, leaving audiences enchanted by their graceful movements and infectious enthusiasm. The sisters' unique style, which blended elements of African-American jazz and European ballet, was a refreshing departure from the traditional forms of dance that dominated the time. This portrait, taken by an unknown photographer, is a testament to the sisters' artistry and the impact they had on the London dance scene. It is a rare and precious glimpse into the past, offering a glimpse into the world of jazz dance during a time when it was still in its infancy. The photograph is a reminder of the rich cultural history of dance and the enduring influence of the jazz age on the performing arts. This portrait, which is dated 1915, is an original print from the Mary Evans Picture Library and is available for exhibition and research purposes only. It is a valuable addition to any collection focused on the history of dance, jazz, or the London theatre scene during the early 20th century.
