Germany.

Germany.

Alf Cooke. Leeds.
[n.d., 1887.]
Chromolithograph. Sheet 250 x 145mm, 9¾ x 9¾".
A dancer in a glamourous version of the German ceremonial military uniform, holding a standard with imperial eagles and the Iron Cross. The costume was made for the Army and Navy ballet at London's Alhambra Theatre. Although the theatre 'specialized in beautiful ballets' it was notorious as a meeting place for prostitutes and their clients.
Not in Ogilby.
