Notes

Alfredo Morelli studied at the Instituto d'Arte in Florence. As part of the school he contributed to the exhibition of Antwerp and Haarlem in 1885, obtaining a mention. His nimble dancer is typical of late nineteenth century Italian sculpture with its engaging subject matter and exquisitely carved details. Morelli revels in his accomplished description of the transparent ripples of the dancer's drapery.
