Description
Photograph of a group of five Mexican-American teenage girls, members of Ballet Folklorico de San Antonio, dancing in costumes onstage at the Texas Folklife Festival. They are grasping their traditional ruffled skirts and twirling them about. Each girl is wearing a different colored dress: red, orange, aqua, and blue dresses are visible. Each dress has horizontal, rainbow-colored ribbons embroidered upon the skirt, the hem of the sleeve, and the chest. Each wears white, heeled boots and a braided scarf in her hair. The photograph is taken from the ground behind the stage, looking across to the audience in the background who is sitting on a hill.
