Most of us have seen her only in photographs or sketches therefore the impact of actually
holding her is magnified a million times over. One discovers that the dancing girl has no

left upper arm all the
way down to her fingers. A necklace with three pendants bunched together and a few
bangles above the elbow and wrist on the right hand display an almost modern art.
4. She speaks of the undaunted ever hopeful human spirit. She reminds us that it is
important to visit museums in our country to experience the impact that a work of art
leaves on our senses, to find among all the riches one particular vision of beauty that
speaks to us alone.
