“The race, adapted from the classic Greek games, is useful in dance interpretations combining grace and swiftness of movement. The silhouettes compare fantastic with natural grace of movement.” From ‘Dancing with Helen Moller’, 1918. Page 106. University of California Libraries. | src internet archive“Drigo’s Serenade — showing how modem music of this character inspires the creation of dance movements and figures adapted from the purest Greek models. The beginning of the interpretation is shown in the small plate.” From ‘Dancing with Helen Moller’, 1918. Page 74. University of California Libraries. | src internet archive“A playful Spring movement — flowers and ribbons, and lightness of movement which seems almost to defy the force of gravitation. The small Tanagra figures suggest the same spirit.” From ‘Dancing with Helen Moller’, 1918. Page 42. University of California Libraries. | src internet archive“Here the dancer, erect and recumbent, realizes in living movement the classic sculptor’s sense of the aesthetic value of simple draperies.” From ‘Dancing with Helen Moller’, 1918.
