Description | Tango dancing at Harewood Place |
Details |
A newly opened venue for the tango tea craze of 1913, at Harewood Place, Hanover Square in London. Opened by Mr F. H. Payne, the salon was similar in nature to a private ballroom with lessons and demonstration dances given by Senor Marquis and Miss Clayton, the celebrated tango dancers from the Queens Theatre and the Savoy Hotel, pictured here, elegantly dancing across the black and white tiled floor while a waitress serves up teas to patrons nearby.
