More of Hoppé's work here: www.eohoppe.com/galleries.html I've seen his photographs of Australia, and they are of outstanding quality, and some of the subject matter is rare for the era.

This would be: en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ruth_St._Denis presumably one of the female dancers in the picture "Ruth St. Denis (January 20, 1879 – July 21, 1968) was an American modern dance pioneer, introducing eastern ideas into the art. She was the co-founder of the American Denishawn School of Dancing and Related Arts and the teacher of several notable performers." en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ted_Shawn 'Ted Shawn (21 October 1891 – 9 January 1972), originally Edwin Myers Shawn, was one of the first notable male pioneers of American modern dance. Along with creating Denishawn with former wife Ruth St. Denis he was also responsible for the creation of the well known all-male company Ted Shawn and His Men Dancers. With his innovative ideas of masculine movement, he was one of the most influential choreographers and dancers of his day. He was also the founder and creator of Jacob's Pillow Dance Festival in Massachusetts, and "was knighted by the King of Denmark for his efforts on behalf of the Royal Danish Ballet."'
