Bella showed me this painting tonight, by the famous Impressionist painter Edgar Dogas. It is called "Allons Danser!" (French for "Let's Dance") and portrays a beautiful prima ballerina from the French company "Toutous et Tutus", very popular in the Belle Epoque and renowned by her very flexible danseuses.
