Three graces of the Ballet of **. Elegant ballet dancers in costume (one in turban and shawl, one with tambourine and dress decorated with flowers, and one with a basket and long plaits tied with ribbons). "Each movement betrays a form: arms, shoulders, throat, legs, feet all are naked or appear so." Handcoloured engraving from Pierre de la Mesangere's Le Bon Genre, Paris, 1817.
