Natalia Makarova in The Taming of the Shrew or A Midsummer Night's Dream judging by the costume and the pose

Margaret Fonteyn sits by to watch a class, head poised to one side... thinking
Margaret Fonteyn, always poised, always maintaining a whiff of elegance. Here she poses as Odette from Swan Lake, a role she is most well-known for playing.
The lovebirds of ballet back then. Rudolf Nureyev and Margot Fonteyn were renowned as partners for ballets for over 3 decades. Their strong partnership brought crowds to the ballet. It was all the rage on the ballet scene back then. It was known that they both loved each other, but let's just say... Rudolf was a homosexual D= I think this is the Waltz of the Flowers scene judging by the costumes and the general position of the dancers. I WISH I HAD THEIR TURNOUT!!!!!!!!! and their costume :)
Diana Vishneva in Raymonda
the Bolshoi Ballet performing Swan Lake. the symmetry from dancer to dancer is somewhat soothing. the lighting makes each dancer appear to be made of ice, their tutus merely layers of frost, their figures simply porcelainJust so you know, this series will never actually end until I can't be bothered to find awesome pics :)
