| The dancers formed tableaux that seemed to evoke the compositions of heroic Theodore Gericault paintings before scattering to the stage's perimeter. George Stubbs used the wild-animal theme within naturalistic settings in several paintings, for example, in "Horse Attacked by a Lion," (1770; London, Tate), of which Gericault made at least one copy (1820/21; Paris, Louvre). In a tableau worthy of Gericault, a little piece of Europe and a little piece of Africa silently regard each other in starlight on the Atlantic Ocean. |
