This print showcases the legendary Ida Rubinstein in her iconic role as Zobeide in the ballet Sheherazade. With a mesmerizing gaze and an alluring pose, Rubinstein embodies the essence of this enchanting character from Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's Arabian Nights-inspired masterpiece. Dressed in an exquisite costume designed by Leon Bakst, Rubinstein exudes elegance and grace as she reclines on a sumptuous divan. The intricate details of her attire, combined with her expressive facial features, transport viewers to a world of exotic beauty and theatrical splendor. As one of the most famous dancers and actresses of her time, Rubinstein's portrayal of Zobeide captivated audiences with its sensuality and artistry. Her performance was hailed as a triumph for both herself and the Ballets Russes company. The painting by Jacques-Emile Blanche captures this momentous occasion perfectly, immortalizing Rubinstein's talent and allure for generations to come. This photograph allows us to appreciate not only the artistic mastery behind this production but also serves as a testament to Rubinstein's status as a prima ballerina.

It is through images like these that we can relive the magic created by visionaries such as Mikhail Fokine, Sergei Diaghilev, Nicholas Rimsky-Korsakov, and Ida Rubinstein herself - forever etched into history through their groundbreaking contributions to balletic storytelling.
