Beautiful

Such a great ballerina Great picture

Beaming, adoring fans! ;) L to R: Helen Brecknell, Helen Thibou, Sonia Humphrey (1947-2011), Margot Fonteyn (1919-1991) and Michael Somes (1917-1994); Mascot Airport, May, 1957. [1] Don't miss reading "When Sonia met Margot" -- a brief article by Valerie Lawson that explains how these three 9-year-old girls came to meet Margot Fonteyn (and appeared on page one of The Sydney Morning Herald) -- and how this chance meeting led to another front page Herald story, five years later, showing Sonia and Fonteyn looking at the previous photo together. This is a gem of a footnote that totally brings this photo to life!

Thanks, Pixel Wrangler

I truly hope it's not ill-mannered to share a photo from another's photostream here – it's just that, like the nine-year-olds pictured above, I'm a beaming admirer!

Yesterday Dame Margot Fonteyn was honored with a famous Blue Plaque at the site of the London flat she lived in.

grace!

This photo was not taken in Australia, it was actually taken in New Zealand. The second carriage is called a "birdcage" with its distinctive outdoor corridor. These were (I think) unique to the New Zealand Railways.
