YOUNG BALLERINAS RE-CREATE ICONIC PICTURES
Eighty years after a world famous ballerina visited Abbotsbury Swannery, in order to draw inspiration for her role in Swan Lake, her iconic visit has been re-created.
Famous Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova visited the swannery in Dorset with her dance troupe in the 1920s in order to study the birds as inspiration for her production of the much-loved ballet, Swan Lake.
Now, the Dorchester Ballet and Dance Club has marked its 50th anniversary by recreating Ms Pavlova's visit.
Ms Pavlova, who died in 1931, is perhaps best known for her performance of The Dying Swan, a dance choreographed to the music Le Cygne.
The ballerina was inspired by swans she had seen in public parks when it came to choreographing the solo dance.
So it made sense for her to visit Abbotsbury, the only place in the world where visitors can walk through the heart of a colony of nesting mute swans, to research her Swan Lake role.
Pictures of Pavlova's visit were only discovered recently when the swannery's general manager John Houston was leafing through a box of old photographs.
Inspired by the images, which show the ballerinas from Pavlov's troupe mingling with the swans in full costume, the Dorchester club has tried to recreate them.
The club, which was founded in the 1950s, even has its own connection with Pavlova; one of its teachers, Elizabeth Goodchild, trained under Ms Pavlova's great rival Tamara Karsavina.

Swans are notoriusly bad tempered but this bird - with a broken leg in plaster and healing rapidly - turns its lissom neck in an apparently graceful thank you to Miss thelma Wood, assistant at the People's Dispensary for Sick Animals hospital at Ilford, Essex.
This swan was lucky - it was rescued from a miserable death for it broke its leg when it was trapped in telephone wires. (FOTO:DUKAS/TOPFOTO)
