Choreographer George Balanchine on the terrace of the Monte Carlo Casino. Monaco 1955.

On the terrace of the Monte Carlo Casino, choreographer George Balanchine is seen in profile, gazing at a stone plaque in 1955. Dressed in a plaid shirt with his hand casually hooked into his waistband, he contemplates the tribute to Serge de Diaghilev. It was for Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, honored by the inscription, that Balanchine began his own celebrated career as a choreographer.
