Dancing with Vigor
1932

A black and white illustration depicting a stylized couple dancing closely together. The man, wearing a suit with pinstripe pants, embraces the woman, who is in a sleeveless dress. Their faces touch as they dance, with the man's eyes closed and the woman's head tilted back. In the background, abstract shapes suggest a festive atmosphere with balloons and streamers. The image has a vintage feel, and there is text at the bottom indicating the title "Dancing with Virgo" and the artist's signature "Caroline Durieux - 1932."
