EDITORS COMMENTS
This enchanting silver-toned print captures a poignant moment from the ballet adaptation of the classic fairy tale, Cinderella. The Ugly Sisters, clad in voluminous skirts and hats, struggle to follow their dancing master's intricate footwork, their expressions a mix of determination and frustration. In the background, Cinderella stands by the tiled fireplace, her silhouette cast long and unhappy against the wall. The scene is set in the 1960s, with the elegant tiles, candles, and ornate fireplace reflecting the historical charm of the production. Based on French and Spanish fairytales, this version of Cinderella, with music by Prokofiev, was first performed by Sadler's Wells Ballet in 1948. The ballet's rich history and timeless storytelling are beautifully captured in this illustration, with the sisters' brooms leaning against the wall adding a whimsical touch to the scene. This print is a stunning reminder of the magic and wonder of the world of ballet and the enduring appeal of the beloved Cinderella tale.
