Metropolitan Opera Production

 Item
Identifier: D021.01.0001.0008.00005
Abstract

In this scene, a group of ballerinas form five lines with their arms raised above their heads, perhaps to start pirouettes. Onlookers sit, some watching. In the background, other performers stand on stairs, perhaps to join the dance. It is either from a late-1940s Met production of "Manon", "Nozzedi", or "Figaro", with the photograph credited to Sedge LeBlang.

Dates: 1947-1949
