Rose Day with the Two Gemini Brothers

This scene realistically recreates the ballroom dance from "The Rose of Versailles." The magnificent dance between the young Queen Marie Antoinette and the young female Royal Guard officer Oscar François de Gerge possessed a splendor and even divinity that captivated even the seasoned aristocrats who were accustomed to such balls. This was further enhanced by Marie's not only flamboyant but also exquisitely decorated dress, and Oscar's military attire, which added a touch of elegance to her ruggedness. To further capture the atmosphere, crimson rose petals flutter in the air. Like a close-up from a manga page, the two dancers are zoomed in on with a telephoto lens, while the surrounding participants and building interiors are greatly blurred, barely indicating that it is a ballroom dance in a palace. Oscar François, with a crimson rose in his mouth and a smile on Marie's face, evokes the image of a goddess of beauty. Originally, the lighting was only from the candles on the chandelier, but the moonlight streaming in creates an almost fantastical atmosphere.
