Nikolai Tsiskaridze trained by Galina Ulanova

(This is not a recent photo. Galina Ulanova passed away in 1998 at the age of 88. She was 87 when this picture was taken, so it would have been shot in 1997. Nikolai is rehearsing his role as Narcissus. Here is the other image from the set. Some more info on the photo is here.)
