Stunning dance pics available online from Jacob's Pillow

Dance, compared to the other performing arts, does a great vanishing act. It lives in the moment (most of the time) and then is gone. But in an under appreciated symbiosis between art forms, dance has inspired a steady stream of unforgettable photography since shutters first began clicking in the 19th century.

Now a small slice of one of the dance world's finest collections of historic photography has just been made available for purchase in print form on the Jacob's Pillow web site.
