Two small cut outs by Lotte Reiniger of dancers Michael George Somes and Margot Fonteyn dancing 'Swan Lake'.

Charlotte "Lotte" Reiniger (2 June 1899 – 19 June 1981) was a German film director and the foremost pioneer of silhouette animation. Her best known films are 'The Adventures of Prince Achmed', from 1926—thought to be one of the oldest surviving feature-length animated films—and Papageno (1935). Reiniger is also noted for having devised an early form of a multiplane camera; she made more than 40 films, all using her invention.
