Danseres 1772 - 1837

"Dansatrice", a 19th-century print by Pietro Fontana, portrays a female figure in a classical pose, reminiscent of ancient Greek sculpture. The image depicts a woman dressed in flowing drapery, with her hand resting on her hip. Her hair is adorned with a floral wreath, emphasizing her graceful form and delicate features. This artwork, now housed in the Rijksmuseum, exemplifies the neoclassical style prevalent in the late 18th and early 19th centuries, characterized by its emphasis on classical aesthetics and themes.
