Bronze sculpture. Signature engraved on the base. The theme of the dancers, both sculpted and painted or lithographed, characterized, together with the theme of the horses, a large part of the production of the seventies and eighties of the well-known artist from Messina. Francesco Messina's sculpture, so full of echoes of the classical Greek-Roman and Hellenistic heritage, "is characterized", wrote Carlo Carrà, by "a simple and grandiose way of doing"and by an "idealistic and classical process" capable of give life to forms that remain as "ideal images".
