About This Artwork
Performances of Tchaikovsky's Christmas Ballet have become the mainstay for ballet companies around the world. It is The Nutcracker Ballet which is the stuff of children's dreams.
Clara, some times known as Maria, is the child star in this Christmas Classic. Since the traditional costumes for this play, hide the choreographer's lines and the complex dance movements of the ballerina, Kelsey has re-designed her inch specific dress to better reveal the figure of the dancer. The hem and sleeves have been shortened, the neckline lowered in front and back and a big bow with multiple sashes have been added to transform Clara herself, into a Christmas gift. This newly designed dress will allow audiences to see her marvelous dancing at last!
This version of the Nutcracker is cast in registered foundry bronze by the Polich-Tallix Foundry. and is engineered for safety and public use. Approximate weight: 1000 pounds. A Poly-Chromed patina has been applied which helps to bring little Clara to life.
The first of this edition of three pieces is owned by Pegasus Venture Capital and the second is owned by the Boston Ballet.
Only one casting is available.
