EDITORS COMMENTS
This evocative photograph captures the grace and elegance of Galina Ulanova (1910-1998), one of the greatest Russian ballerinas of the 20th century, as she assumes the iconic pose of Giselle, the titular character in the classic Romantic ballet. Dated to the 1930s, the image finds Ulanova in the prime of her career, her slender frame bathed in the soft glow of the stage lights, her expression a perfect blend of melancholy and determination. The ballet of Giselle, first performed in 1841, tells the tragic story of a peasant girl who dies of a broken heart after discovering her lover's infidelity. In the second act, Giselle is resurrected as a vengeful wilt-o'-the-wisp, seeking vengeance against those who have wronged her. Ulanova's portrayal of the character was renowned for its emotional depth and technical mastery, her ability to convey the fragility and strength of Giselle's spirit. In this photograph, Ulanova's pose is imbued with a sense of otherworldly beauty, her arms outstretched in the air, her body cast in the delicate shadows of the stage. The image serves as a testament to the power of dance to transport us to another realm, to evoke emotions that defy words. With her expressive face and lithe form, Ulanova embodies the essence of Giselle, a timeless symbol of love, loss, and the human spirit.
