EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases the legendary American dancer Loie Fuller (Mary Louise Fuller) in the midst of her mesmerizing Serpentintanz or Serpentine Dance, performed at the Palace Theatre in London on March 8, 1912. Loie Fuller, known for her innovative and dramatic dance techniques, is seen gracefully leaning backwards in her voluminous, flowing costume. The intricately designed attire, reminiscent of a serpent or a swirling vortex, was a hallmark of her unique dance style. The Serpentine Dance was a groundbreaking performance that involved the use of large, billowing fabrics that Fuller manipulated with gas jets, creating the illusion of a living, breathing serpent. This dance marked a significant departure from traditional ballet and paved the way for modern dance. In this photograph, taken by Ferdinand von Reznicek for the Grenville Collins Postcard Collection, Loie Fuller's dramatic pose and the ethereal quality of her costume are on full display. The image captures the essence of the 1910s, a time of artistic experimentation and innovation. The Serpentine Dance became an iconic moment in dance history, and Loie Fuller's influence can still be felt in contemporary dance and performance art.
