Anna Pavlova in The Swan, 20th century
Anna Pavlova, Russian ballerina, in The Swan, early 20th century. Pavlova (1881-1931) was the most famous classical ballerina of her era. She trained at the school of the Imperial Ballet, made her debut as soloist in 1899, and became prima ballerina of the company in 1906. Pavlova toured Europe in 1907, appeared briefly with the Ballets Russes of the Russian impresario Sergey Diaghilev and, in 1910 made her American debut with the Russian dancer Mikhail Mordkin at the Metropolitan Opera House in New York City. She founded her own company in 1911, and until 1931, when she died of pneumonia while on tour, she danced extensively in Europe, the Americas, Africa, and Asia, often bringing ballet for the first time to remote areas. Her most famous classical roles were in Giselle, Swan Lake, Les Sylphides, Don Quixote, Coppe lia, and in the solo dance The Dying Swan, created for her in 1905 by the Russian choreographer Michel Fokine

EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary Anna Pavlova in her iconic role as The Swan. As one of the most celebrated ballerinas of the 20th century, Pavlova's grace and elegance are on full display in this mesmerizing image. Born in Russia in 1881, Pavlova trained at the prestigious school of the Imperial Ballet before making her debut as a soloist in 1899. Her talent quickly propelled her to become prima ballerina of the company in 1906. Throughout her illustrious career, she enchanted audiences across Europe, America, Africa, and Asia with her breathtaking performances. Pavlova's repertoire included renowned classical roles such as Giselle, Swan Lake, Les Sylphides, Don Quixote, and Coppelia. However, it was her portrayal of The Dying Swan that truly solidified her status as a ballet legend. Choreographed specifically for Pavlova by Michel Fokine in 1905, this solo dance showcased both her flexibility and emotional depth. In addition to being an extraordinary performer, Pavlova also founded her own ballet company in 1911. She tirelessly brought ballet to new audiences around the world while leaving an indelible mark on its history. Tragically taken from us too soon due to pneumonia while on tour in 1931 at just fifty years old; Anna Pavlova's legacy continues to inspire generations of dancers who strive for excellence and artistry. This timeless photograph serves as a testament to her unparalleled talent and enduring impact on the world of dance.
