In 'taking a closer look', as I mentioned below, I discovered that Zizi Jeanmaire was a ballet dancer who became famous in the fifties for her role in the ballet Carmen. I then did some further investigation and thanks to the wonderful world of Wikipedia discovered that Joseph Cornell was obsessed with her. Who is Joseph Cornell? Maybe you know, maybe you don't. I didn't. He was an American artist and sculpter whose work happens to be brilliant and interesting. I would so love to see it real life though.
