Maria Danilova

Maria Danilova (1793 – 1810) was a Russian ballet dancer.

Danilova enrolled in the St. Petersburg school at the age of eight.

The trainer Charles-Louis Didelot took notice of her talent, and she made her first public appearance a year later.

Danilova had a fragile constitution and the stress of performance as well as a brief, unhappy affair with Duport took a toll on her health.
