This illustration, part of the “Hamilton King Girls” series, was issued by Turkish Trophies Cigarettes in 1913. The artwork depicts a woman in a purple dress and hat, posed mid-step as if mid-dance. Hamilton King, known for his illustration work, captures the movement of the dancer in a stylized, Art Nouveau manner. This illustration, along with others in the series, served as a promotional piece for Turkish Trophies Cigarettes. The piece currently resides in the Metropolitan Museum of Art, New York.
