Lycette Darsonval

Lycette Darsonval (born Alice Andrée Marie Perron, 12 February 1912 – 1 November 1996) was a French ballet dancer.

[1] She visited Noël Corbu in Rennes-le-Château with the artist Jean Raffy Le Persan (1920-2008) during the 1950s.

Dancer in the street in Montmartre, she was spotted and entered the Paris Opera at the age of 23, where, a pupil of Nicola Guerra, she became one of the most prominent performers of the "Lifar generation", promoted to the rank as a prima ballerina in 1940.

[2] Two bronzes by Jacques Gestalder representing Lycette Darsonval are exhibited at the Bettencourt-Schueller foundation in Neuilly-sur-Seine.
