text: Purchase; Ballet Shop, 1988.

type: biographical/historical

text: This lithograph is based on an oil painting by Richard Buckner, titled "Marie Adeline Plunkett," held by the Birmingham Museums and Art Gallery. The dancer wears a pink bolero, with pink decorations on her skirt and in her hair. According to the museums' online catalog, Buckner based her pose on that of the classical statue of Mercury in the Uffizi Gallery in Florence.

text: Various versions of this print exist, though some may be later reproductions; the dancer's costume may be pink, blue, or, as in this example, uncolored. The version held by the Victoria & Albert Museum in London is captioned "Madmoiselle [sic] Plunkett of Her Majesty's Theatre." Like the uncaptioned print held by the National Portrait Gallery in London, it was printed by M & N Hanhart and published by John Mitchell in 1854. A copy formerly in the collection of ballerina Alexandra Danilova is captioned "Adeline Plunkett in La Mañola," an identification also made by the Victoria & Albert and George Chaffee, in the article cited above. The Spanish-style bolero Plunkett wears in this print seems to bear this out, since La Mañola was a balleticized Spanish dance performed to music from Gaetano Donizetti's opera La favorite (1840). Her costume, however, is not the same as in other depictions of her performances of La Mañola.

text: Despite her apparently English name, Adeline Plunkett was born in Belgium, made her debut in Trieste, and danced at Her Majesty's Theatre in London before becoming a principal ballerina at the Paris Opéra, where she performed until 1857.

text: This is a hand-colored version of a lithograph published as a plate in the Album de l'Opera, edited and published by Augustin Challamel in Paris, ca. 1845. Although most of the prints in this book illustrated brief essays about particular ballets or operas, this print accompanied a brief biography of Marie Taglioni. George Chaffee, in the article cited above, identifies it as the transformation scene from Filippo Taglioni's ballet L'ombre, first produced at Her Majesty's Theatre, London, in 1840. Chaffee further notes that this lithograph was intended as a souvenir of Taglioni's farewell performances in Paris in 1844, which included a version of this ballet, titled Le pas de l'ombre. The ballerina's bare feet in this print, however, probably stem from artistic license rather than reality.

text: Marie Taglioni is the ballerina most closely identified with the Romantic ballet. Dancing the title role in her father Filippo Taglioni's ballet La sylphide (1832), she ushered in a new era in ballet, in which mortal men ventured into the mysterious realm of the supernatural, embodied by beautiful and desirable but elusive young women. La sylphide had many imitators, and Filippo Taglioni saw no shame in attempting to repeat his success with L'ombre, which featured as its heroine the ghost of a woman poisoned by flowers, and her subsequent interactions with her bereaved lover. Although this print commemorates Marie Taglioni's farewell performances in Paris in 1844, she did not actually retire from the stage until 1847.

abstracts: Portrayal of the ballerina Marie Taglioni, dressed in a white Romantic tutu decorated with flowers, reclining in a landscape. A wreath of flowers is on her head, and her feet are bare. She rests her elbow on a stone pedestal, while behind her billows a draped cloth of the sort that became a pictorial convention long before the nineteenth century.

text: Marie Taglioni, the ballerina most closely identified with nineteenth-century Romantic ballet, made her London debut in June 1830 in a revival of Charles Didelot's ballet Flore et Zéphire. Though she fell short of conventional standards of physical beauty, her supernal grace of movement had audiences flocking to see her. This print predates the ballet in which she had her greatest triumph, her father Filippo Taglioni's La sylphide (1832), the defining work of the Romantic ballet. Her popularity evidently did not depend on a single role, but sprang from dance qualities she displayed in a variety of roles.

She enjoyed the celebrity of a contemporary film star or rock idol, and was the subject of  innumerable portraits by artists of her day.

text: This lithograph is a variant of a portrait by Pierre Roch Vigneron, made by Maxim or Massimo Gauci, 1774 or 1776-1854, a British printmaker who was born in Malta and settled in London in 1809. An image similar to Gauci's, attributed to John Pendleton, was published as a sheet music cover for La Taglioni waltz, arranged by W.H. Phipps.
