Dated back to 1910, this image showcases Morris's unparalleled artistry and mastery of the classical dance form during an era when women in dance were beginning to challenge traditional norms. Morris, dressed in a flowing white tunic and a diaphanous skirt, exudes an ethereal and otherworldly presence as she bares her feet, emphasizing the connection between her body and the earth. Her pose, full of grace and poise, speaks to the timeless beauty and power of dance as a means of expression and communication.
