## Commentary

Loïe Fuller. The Dancer c. 1900 Gilt bronze, height 46 cm Museum of Modern Art, New York Larche&#39;s design for this decorative table lamp was inspired by the graceful movements of Loïe Fuller \(1862-1928\), one of the most celebrated dancers in Paris during the late 1890s and after. An American, Fuller had developed a style of dance based on the swirling and billowing movements of her diaphanous veiled costumes.
