Label TextThis intimate portrait of the American ballet dancer Richard Adama was created in 1961. It was captured by the photojournalist Susan Faludi in the dressing room at the Vienna Opera in Austria. Faludi had unprecedented access to private moments such as this, in which the dancer applies extravagant eye makeup for the stage on which he will soon perform the male lead.Status
