About this work

A colored magazine cover shows a large bird dressed as a ballerina in a dark tutu, with pearl necklaces, a ribbon-trimmed head, and raised wings, dancing before a seated figure in a star-patterned coat. The figure holds a bouquet of leafy greens tied with ribbon, and a small village appears in the background. The cover is from Puck, the Thanksgiving number, dated November 20, 1912, and is signed L. M. Glackens.
