images that haunt us







Desperate cry. Rolf Arco in the Dance of the Suicide from the ballet “The Five Wishes” by Max Terpis and Rolf Arco. Stage design. Photographer: Elli Marcus.
Published in Scherl’s magazine in November 1929



On secondary source (Getty Images) there are no photographer’s credits and the image is identified as one from the Archiv Setzer-Tschiedel. Even though, we believe it is a d’Ora photo, it keeps the same style as all her photos from Die Tänze des Lasters, des Grauens und der Ekstase.
