Beschreibung

Bright and interesting coloured illustrations throughout. Card boards are sunned and string holding the book together has broken through one of the two holes on the back board, the book having been tightly tied by the publishers. Very good indeed. Acquired from Maude Lloyd, an admired leading dancer with Ballet Rambert in the 1930s. With her husband, Nigel Gosling a renowned art critic, she later wrote, influential dance books and reviews under the joint pseudonym, 'Alexander Bland'. When Rudolph Nureyev defected in 1961, Margot Fonteyn asked them to befriend him which they gladly did offering him freedom of their house. Gosling edited his autobiography. Nureyev wrote an admiring memoir of him in Observer of the Dance anthologising Goslings reviews, "He and Maude were like my family.". Bestandsnummer des Verkäufers NGA.SAIN.NI.STOR.2022
