EDITORS COMMENTS
Madame Marguerite Vacani, the renowned dance and deportment teacher, is depicted in this delightful caricature as gracefully walking on air, surrounded by admiring debutantes. Known as the leading school for teaching the elite members of high society and the royal family the art of perfect poise, curtseying, and dancing, Madame Vacani's reputation for instilling grace and elegance was unmatched during the inter-war years. Beyond her teaching prowess, Madame Vacani was an energetic fundraiser for charity, dedicating her time to teaching the blind. Her commitment to giving back to her community was a testament to her compassionate nature and generosity. As the world faced the challenges of World War II, Madame Vacani continued to run her esteemed school while also serving as the Central Organiser for the Women's Voluntary Service (W.V.S) in the Borough of Windsor. Her unwavering dedication to her students and community during this tumultuous time solidified her place in history as a remarkable and inspiring figure. This charming caricature captures the essence of Madame Vacani's grace, energy, and the admiration she garnered from the young debutantes of her time. A true embodiment of perfection, she continues to be remembered as a trailblazer in the world of dance and deportment.
