The Pharaoh's Daughter
When her rival Angelina Fioretti arrived in Paris in 1879, she left for St Petersburg's Imperial Theatre where she appeared in "Jovita" and in ballets created for her by Arthur Saint-Léon and Théophile Gautier. In 1862, she danced Aspicia in Marius Petipa's "The Pharaoh's Daughter". She also danced all the great classical roles in "Paquita", "Giselle", "Le Cheval de Bronze", "La Somnabule" and "La Esmeralda".
