Miss Milligan and La Belle Lucie, at the dance

I chose the title for the series once it was finished, so the title doesn’t describe the images, it only gives a sense of them. "Miss Milligan" and "La Belle Lucie" are the names of solitaire card games and I just liked the sound of them; it seemed to me that many of the figures in these pictures are engaged in a dance, about to join in, or maybe just watching one.
