This is a picture of me with my dear Enrico at the Lyric Theatre in Milan. It was taken back in the late 1920s. I was always very fond of Enrico. You may have heard of him as Cecchetti, the man who created those magnificent ballet lines.

This must have been back in 1923. I was dancing an Indian ballet called Radha-Krishna. It was choreographed by Udar Shankar. He was also my dancing partner in this dance. I enjoyed this ballet very much. I loved experimenting with the Indian style.

This is a video of me feeding my swans at my Ivy House. I have become very attached to my swans ever since Michel Fokine choreographed the dance 'The Dying Swan' for me. Watching the swans allows me to see how they move and glide so that I can incorporate those qualities in my dance.

What a lovely picture! This must have been back in the 1920s, when I was dancing with the Australian Ballet. I'm pretty sure this photograph was taken during Act II of Giselle.

This is a photograph of me arriving in Sydney. That wasn't too long ago actually. It must have been about April 1926.
