EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait print showcases Jean-Georges Noverre, a prominent figure in the world of ballet during the 18th century. Created in 1764 by Jean-Baptiste Perronneau, this pastel on paper artwork captures the essence and elegance of Noverre's persona. Noverre was not only a talented dancer but also an influential ballet master, teacher, choreographer, and theorist. Often referred to as the "Shakespeare of the Ballet" he revolutionized the art form with his innovative ideas and techniques. His contributions to ballet theory and composition are still revered today. In this portrait, Noverre exudes confidence and poise as he gazes directly at the viewer. Dressed in elaborate attire befitting his status, he wears a wig that adds an air of sophistication to his appearance. The intricate lace cravat around his neck further enhances his regal aura. Housed in the Bibliotheque de l'Opera Garnier in Paris, France, this print offers us a glimpse into both Noverre's personal life and artistic legacy. It serves as a testament to his significant impact on ballet history. As we admire this remarkable image captured by Perronneau's skilled hand, we are reminded of Noverre's immense influence on dance and how he shaped its evolution throughout centuries - forever leaving an indelible mark on the world stage.
