Marie Taglioni (1804-1884) was a prominent Italian-Swedish ballerina who is often credited with revolutionizing ballet. She is most famously associated with her performance in the ballet "La Sylphide," which premiered on March 12, 1832, at the Paris Opéra. The ballet, choreographed by Filippo Taglioni, Marie's father, was a landmark in the development of romantic ballet. In 1836, Alfred-Edward Chalon, a Swiss-born British artist known for his portraits, captured Marie Taglioni in her role in "La Sylphide" in a lithograph that has since become iconic. This artwork not only illustrates Taglioni's ethereal presence and delicate poise but also serves as a visual representation of the romantic era's fascination with supernatural themes. Chalon's portrayal of Taglioni helped immortalize her image as the quintessential sylph, a spirit of the air, which became a symbol of the romantic ballet era. This lithograph remains an important historical document, reflecting both the artistry of Taglioni and the aesthetic values of the period.
