In the Wings, from L'Estampe Moderne - A Glimpse into Ballet's Intimate World
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print titled "In the Wings" takes us back to the enchanting world of ballet in late 19th century Paris. Captured by Henri Boutet, a renowned artist of his time, this colour lithograph offers a rare backstage view that transports us to an era long gone. As we peer through the lens, we find ourselves amidst a grand staircase leading up to a performance venue. The graceful ballerina stands poised on one foot, her delicate tutu billowing around her like a cloud. She is caught in mid-warm-up, her body exuding strength and elegance simultaneously. The bannister beside her serves as both support and prop for this talented performer. Its ornate design echoes the opulence of French architecture prevalent during that period. Behind her lies an unseen realm where dancers prepare themselves mentally and physically before stepping onto the stage - 'dans les coulisses', or behind-the-scenes. The image captures not only the physical beauty but also reveals the anticipation and dedication hidden within every dancer's heart. It reminds us of their tireless efforts and unwavering commitment to perfect their craft. Preserved within The Stapleton Collection, this modern print allows us to appreciate ballet beyond its polished performances; it invites us into its intimate spaces where dreams are nurtured and talent blossoms. Let this exquisite artwork serve as a reminder that true
