A dancer

I fell in love with a photograph of the original of this statue many years ago - I was so taken with her grace and self-effacement.  A long time later, I found this reproduction in the catalogue of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York, and I jumped at the chance to purchase it at what was for me a very high price.  But she is one of my most prized possessions, and I enjoy looking at her and running my fingers over her on a difficult day.  Today was one such day, and she worked her magic.  The extra is the figure from another angle.
