The photogravure print, taken by a talented French photographer from the 20th century, showcases Hightower's exceptional talent as an American ballerina. In this stunning portrait, Hightower is seen wearing a beautiful costume adorned with intricate details that perfectly complement her poise and artistry.

The sepia tones add a timeless quality to this image, transporting us back to the enchanting world of ballet in the forties. The tutu adds an ethereal touch to Hightower's presence on stage, further emphasizing her role as Odette/Odile in Tchaikovsky's iconic ballet.
