This very fine and delicate watercolour was painted during world war II
The figures posing and the textures of the ballet dresses are extremely well executed.
The location is Madame Rambert's rehearsal studio in the Mercury Theatre, Nottingh Hill, London.
Russell Flint stated that he shyed away from painting ballet subjects,
as their following was almost fanatical, and attracts much critism from all angles.
