This chromolithograph, part of the "Dancing Girls of the World" series, depicts a woman in a red dress performing a dance pose against a background featuring the Eiffel Tower. The illustration, created by William S. Kimball & Company in 1889, is a colorful and whimsical representation of the can-can, a popular French dance form. This small-scale artwork, part of the trade card genre, highlights the connection between dance and cultural identity, capturing a moment of Parisian entertainment.
