マリー・タリオーニ
The next year, 1832, Marie Taglioni appeared in the title role of "La Sylphide", the story of a wood nymph (a sylphide) who tempts a Scottish farmer, James, to abandon his rural sweetheart and follow her into the woods, in pursuit of ethereal beauty. Dance historians consider this work, as the first fully-fledged "ballet blanc", to be the beginning of the Romantic movement in ballet.
