Homage to Charlotte Bara!
You don't know who that is? Well she was an expressionistic german dancer, born in 1901. She moved to Ascona, Switzerland in her twenties where her father had a theater build for her! Wow!! Her Family lived in the Theatro San Materno, right across. I used to go visit her with my parents when she was still alive. And she was a well educated, knowledgeable and well read lady who in her 80s still was a very strong beautiful woman. Extraordinary!!!! I am blessed to have met her! Oh, she had so many cats living with her in her Castello and she gave me one of them, my first cat, whose name was FRIGOLETTE. Since that time I am a cat lover!
