EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "SWORD DANCE, c1920" we are transported back in time to witness the mesmerizing performance of Olga Desmond (1891-1964) as she gracefully executes the Sword Dance. The photograph, taken around 1920, captures her striking pose and showcases her undeniable talent as an entertainer. Olga Desmond stands tall and confident, adorned in a traditional obi and wearing a delicate tiara upon her head. Her bare feet firmly planted on the ground, she exudes both strength and grace. The sepia tones add a nostalgic touch to this early 20th-century image. What makes this particular performance unique is that Olga Desmond performs the Sword Dance completely nude. This daring choice adds an erotic element to her act, pushing boundaries and challenging societal norms of the time. As a German performer, Olga Desmond was known for her provocative performances that celebrated female sensuality. In this photograph, she fearlessly embraces her femininity while wielding a sword with precision and elegance. The Granger Collection has preserved this historic moment through their art print collection. It serves as a testament to Olga Desmond's legacy as an influential figure in dance history who pushed artistic boundaries during an era when such expressions were considered taboo.
