Anna Pavlova
b. 1-31-1881; St Petersburg
d. 1-23-1931; The Netherlands
Anna Pavlova was a Russian ballet dancer best known for her delicate etheral look that contrasted with the then predominant Russian ideal of strong and muscular dancers, and her showpiece “The Dying Swan” danced to Camille Saint-Saëns' The Swan from Carnival of the Animals.
Because of her highly arched foot Pavlova developed a pointe shoe that served as the model for today's pointe shoe.
