Rudolf Nureyev Dances Le Corsaire

Rudolf Nureyev is one of my favourite ballet dancers (and hot too). The above photograph shows just how beautiful (and extraordinarily well hung) he was. The photograph was taken by Richard Avedon, in Paris, July 15 1961.

Look how perfect he performs an act of Le Corsaire. As well as the dancing, I love the aesthetics of this 1963 clip, the colour and feel to it.
