Yes, (I believe it's reversed though) and the filmed Balanchine bio-pic shown on Saturday cuts from that image (of God creating Adam) to Apollo and Terpsichore. My late aunt often spotted images from paintings in Balanchine's work, but I do not remember what they were. Some of his tableaus recall certain painting styles. "La Source" comes to mind, I'm not sure why. Fascinating! I didn't make that connection but it's so clear now!

Thank you to everyone for these wonderful responses! I am so fortunate to benefit from the wealth of knowledge here!

In "Serenade," there is a distinct moment when the image of "Psyche and Cupid" is depicted. Are there other moments in Balanchine's choreography where the work of other great artists is also mirrored so distinctly? I'm exploring the topic as a subject for research and appreciate any contributions.
