[Tango-L] Evolution of the Embrace

[Ming Mar]

"Close embrace" predated tango, as can be seen in some
of Renoir's paintings.  An 1876 painting of an
afternoon dance in Paris can be seen here
<http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/renoir/moulin-galette/>
and three 1883 paintings of dancing couples can be
seen here <http://www.ibiblio.org/wm/paint/auth/renoir/dancers/>.
