    I'm going to take a guess that the man on the left in the long top coat is trumpet player Louis "Louie" Prima. I could be wrong but, they both look very familiar, can't peg the guy shaking his hand though neat photo though! :-) And don't let me hang, I'd like to know who they are!!! :-)

Russian prima ballerina Anna Pavlova arriving at Central Station, Brisbane, 1926

  • Vesna Verencevic said:
    With her 1926 tour of Australian cities including Melbourne, Sydney, Brisbane and Adelaide , Russian ballerina Anna Pavlova, formerly principal artist of the Russian Imperial Ballet, became the first world-famous ballerina to tour Australia and around the world. Greeted by a crowd of 10,000 people on arrival by train from Melbourne, Pavlova had become well-known to world audiences for her signature role in The Dying Swan, a ballet created for her, which was of only four minutes duration. In rare public comments, she exhorted Australians to support the art she loved: “If you would like to do something in your country for my art, my Russian art, then I shall be glad to help you. I wish you happiness and prosperity. Your duty is to help your country to get these things.” The ‘Pavlova’ dessert was created in Anna Pavlova’s honour during her tour of Australia and New Zealand in the 1920s. To this day, the creation of the ‘Pavlova’ is claimed by both countries. Source www.governor.nsw.gov.au/government-house/stories/in-famou...
