Vintage Ballet Dancer Postcard - Hand-Tinted Early 20th Century Art #3343193 (License: Personal Use)

This hand-tinted photographic postcard depicts a young female dancer in a shimmering turquoise tulle skirt with silver sequins, a yellow-gold bodice, and floral embellishments-including a yellow flower in her hair and at her waist. She balances en pointe while twirling a decorative hoop composed of ribbons and blossoms, against a painted pastoral backdrop with scattered roses and two period U.S. postage stamps (3¢ red and 1¢ green) affixed to the lower left corner. The image bears the handwritten notation “791/1” in the bottom right, suggesting it was part of a numbered series or studio collection.

Used in digital archives, museum exhibitions, and vintage collectible marketplaces to illustrate early 20th-century performance art, postcard design, and hand-coloring techniques; appeals to historians, ballet enthusiasts, and antique paper collectors seeking authentic ephemera.
