About this work

This print shows people dancing in a room. It's an interesting scene because the dancers are rehearsing, which suggests they're trying to get it just right. The detail that catches my eye is the musician in the corner, playing music for the dancers. You can learn more about this kind of printmaking by looking into the work of artist: Cruikshank, George.
