"Tuscany," from the "Dancing Girls of the World" series, is a colorful chromolithograph from 1889 by William S. Kimball & Company. Depicting a young woman in traditional Tuscan dress, the image features a lively scene of a woman playing a tambourine with a backdrop of hills and water. This card, part of a larger series celebrating diverse global cultures, captures the beauty of traditional dress and regional dance. The image is a vivid representation of late-19th-century fascination with world cultures and is part of the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
