    It's photos like this that prove why I love the LOC photo stream! Type George Kimmel in the NY Times archive and you get lots of hits! Apparently, he was a petty criminal who was hit on the head & lost his memory. After regaining it, his family refused to recognize him. query.nytimes.com/search/query?frow=0&n=10&srcht=...

    What is the circle on the photo?
  • Ken Zirkel said:
    Probably where the impact occurred.
  • Laura Moncur said:
    And then there was a whole trial about whether he was the real Kimmel or not. query.nytimes.com/gst/abstract.html?res=9B00E0DF1F31E233A...

    More like time to shoot the morons making fatuous remarks tagging these photos. Maybe they don't have enough intelligence to realize what they're looking at!
  • Jo Angus said:
    I agree. It's like spraying graffiti on a tomb stone. The disrespect and ignorance is completely beyond me.
  • Lanterna said:
    Cannot believe the photo quality in these conditions - tripods and plates, after all, not pocket-digi cams.

    Anna Pavlova (Pavlovna) (1881?-1931) was a Russian ballerina. She joined the Imperial Ballet in 1899 and became a prima ballerina in 1906.

    Her American debut was made with Mikhail Mordkin, on March 1, 1910, at the Metropolitan Opera House, New York City, in a revival of Delibes's ballet, Coppelia. After the debut a New York critic declared such dancing had not been seen on the local stage during the present generation and praised the supreme ease with which Pavlova executed the most difficult tricks of the dancer's art.

    After 1913, she danced independently with her own company around the world. Some of her more famous dances include The Dragon fly, Californian Poppy, and Gavotte. "Pavlova is perhaps most renowned for creating the role of "The Dying Swan", a solo choreographed for her by Michel Fokine. The ballet, created in 1905, is danced to Le cygne from The Carnival of the Animals by Camille Saint-Saëns."

    Pavlova was married to her accompanist, Victor d'Andre. The marriage was announced by the dancer during her last American tour in 1924-25, which was said to be her farewell appearance in this country. Commenting on her marriage at that time, the dancer said:
    "For an artist there is no husband. Pavlova the artist and Pavlova the wife, they are two very different persons, so I keep them separate. My dancing belongs to the world, but my husband to myself."
    Anna died of pleurisy at the height of her fame in 1931. She is considered one of the finest classical ballet dancers in history. [1] [2] [3] [4]
