DescriptionAt center is a ballerina-like female figure standing on the tips of her toes with arms outstretched at sides, facing left. She wears a yellow/green dress, a red/orange vest, black tights, and two yellow ornaments on either side of her head. She is standing under a spotlight with her shadow cast behind her and the rest of the floor around the oval lighted portion is black. In the upper left corner is a green object with a jagged edge, perhaps a stage curtain.
