Summary

Description Plaster cast of Le septième voile (c. 1911) by the Australian sculptor Dora Ohlfsen (1869–1948), who lived and worked in Rome for decades. This photograph of the cast was one of a series of photographs taken by her in Rome and sent to her niece, Dora Stanford. Stanford gave it to the Art Gallery of New South Wales, which published it on its website a few years ago. The photograph was not published in Ohlfsen's lifetime. The work itself is lost.
Date c. 1911
Source Art Gallery of New South Wales: "A reviewer in the 'Sydney Morning Herald' noted that this work was meant to invoke an Oriental dance: 'the arms close to the sides, with the hands upturned at the wrists, is from the dance of Salome'."
Author Dora Ohlfsen; the Art Gallery of New South Wales notes that the photograph is "Not signed. Not dated."
