This print shows a dancer in a full skirt, standing with a flower and a far-off view of tall buildings. Her outfit mixes plain cloth with small floral patterns and a dark scarf. Jewelry and hair bands add detail to the simple dress. The artist added the name “La Boyadere” at the bottom. It’s signed Weld Taylor, who may have drawn the original sketch. Look up Taylor, Weld next.
