Marie Taglioni (1804–1884) was a prominent Italian-Swedish ballerina of the Romantic ballet era, a central figure in the history of European dance. She was born in Stockholm to the Italian choreographer Filippo Taglioni and the Swedish ballet dancer Sophie Karsten. Taglioni rose to fame after her 1832 performance in "La Sylphide," choreographed by her father, which became a landmark event in the development of the Romantic ballet. Her ethereal presence, technical precision, and the innovative use of pointework greatly influenced the aesthetics of ballet and solidified her status as an icon of the art form.

Taglioni's style was characterized by a lightness and fluidity that seemed to defy gravity, an ideal that was perfectly suited to the supernatural themes popular in Romantic ballet. She was also known for her modesty and purity on stage, which was in stark contrast to the more earthy and sensual style of her contemporaries. Her fame was not limited to her performances; she also became a fashion icon, with women emulating her hairstyle and clothing.

After retiring from the stage in 1847, Taglioni moved to London, where she taught dance. She later relocated to Paris, where she lived out the remainder of her life. Despite facing financial difficulties in her later years, Taglioni's legacy as a transformative figure in the world of ballet remained undisputed. Her contributions to the art form have been celebrated in numerous works, including J. Bert's detailed and comprehensive biography, "Marie Taglioni (1804-84)," which chronicles her life and career, providing insight into the world of 19th-century ballet and the enduring impact of Taglioni's artistry.
