EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph captures the Sisters Wiesenthal, Grete, Elsa, and Berta, in their prime at the London Hippodrome in 1909. The Hippodrome had recently undergone a four-month-long refurbishment, and the sisters' performances were causing quite a sensation. Their exuberant and expressive interpretations of gavottes and waltzes, with Grete's whirling dance to the Blue Danube nightly creating a furore, were a refreshing departure from traditional dance routines. Born in Vienna, Austria, the Sisters Wiesenthal were part of the modern artistic movement that was sweeping through Europe. Their innovative and free-spirited approach to dance was a stark contrast to the rigid and formal styles of the time. Their performances were met with great enthusiasm and admiration from audiences, who were drawn to their sibling bond and the energy they brought to the stage. Grete, the eldest sister, was particularly renowned for her extraordinary talent and captivating stage presence. Elsa and Berta, although younger, were no less skilled and added their own unique flair to the performances. Together, they represented the new wave of artistic expression that was taking the entertainment world by storm. This photograph is a testament to the Sisters Wiesenthal's groundbreaking contributions to the world of dance and their enduring legacy as pioneers of modern dance. Their performances at the London Hippodrome in 1909 marked a turning point in the history of dance, paving the way for future generations of dancers to explore new forms of artistic expression.
