Summary[edit]
DescriptionDancing peasants and egg dance (Eiertanz).jpg |
English: This sheet depicts two scenes of rural dance practice typified by the artists around 1500: the rustic couple dance and the egg dance as a sample of physical skill. Stereotypically, rustic dancing was presented without rules and grace, using pairs of people who twist, jibe and jump with their legs wide in their work clothes. The partner always leads his partner roughly grabbing his hand. This stereotype of the "corporeal" is opposed here by the dominated, delicate-cautious movements requiring a single dance across raw eggs. As an additional sample of body control, the dancer balances a bottle on his head. |
