The Dance is a photographic by Lellio Gelli, held at Victoria and Albert Museum.
This is a black-and-white photo of a stone statue. A woman stands with one arm raised, holding her hair back. She’s barefoot, wearing a short skirt that stops above her knees. Her other hand rests on a small dog at her feet. The statue sits on a simple pedestal outdoors, with trees and other statues in the background. The smooth curves of her body and the calm pose make it feel like a quiet moment frozen in time. The photo itself looks old, with a slightly grainy texture. If you like this style of sculpture, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum for more.
