A pause between preparations

Backstage at the Ballet places two dancers together beside a large mirror, one upright while the other bends towards her costume. Pale skirts spread across the lower space. Their different postures give the scene a quiet activity, with the reflected room adding depth behind the closely grouped figures.

A figure above the dark room

Dancer Sitting on a Window Sill raises the seated dancer against a softly lit background, with the pale skirt forming the broadest shape. The lowered head and hanging legs lead the eye downward. The window setting offers a quieter counterpart to the exchanges between dancers in the backstage scenes.

A row of individual passengers

L’Omnibus gathers closely seated people across a narrow interior, each absorbed in a different activity or direction of looking. Hats, collars and hands divide the row into distinct characters. The compressed public space contrasts with the dancers’ rooms while retaining the same interest in pose and everyday gesture.
