DANCE ON FIRE



Isadora lived long enough to see that there were dancers and dance troops all over the United States and Europe who took some inspiration from her ideas but who didn't give her credit.  This vintage image from artfullymusing.blogspot.com from THE THEATRE magazine, March 1917, features a dancer on fire.  She is wearing shoes.  Isadora at first wore Grecian type sandals, gold in color, that tied up her legs, but soon decided dancing barefoot was more in keeping with her philosophy.
