“This portrait of a dancer, painted by James Wilson Morrice during his second stay in Tangier, shows the similarities between his style and that of Henri Matisse: expressive treatment of the subject, fluidity and lightness of the pictorial material, light-creating reserves, abundance of decorative motifs, vivid color contrasts…
…Exceptionally, Tangier, dancer, is still in its original frame. ”
