"Assyrian Dancer" is a chromolithograph from the "Dancing Women" series published by William S. Kimball & Co. in 1889. The print depicts a woman in elaborate attire, characteristic of Assyrian dance costumes, holding a flower and performing a graceful dance pose. The vibrant colors and intricate details of the clothing showcase the artistic style of the late 19th century. This print is an example of the popular "trade card" genre, often used for advertising or promotional purposes. The "Assyrian Dancer" offers a glimpse into the fascination with ancient cultures and exotic dance forms prevalent in the era.
