EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning costume design for the ballet Sleeping Beauty by P. Tchaikovsky, created in 1921. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Leon Bakst (1866-1924), known for his exceptional talent in the world of theatre and opera. The image captures a regal King, adorned in an elaborate ensemble that exudes grandeur and elegance. Every intricate detail of the costume reflects Bakst's meticulous craftsmanship and artistic vision. From the richly embroidered fabrics to the ornate crown atop his head, every element contributes to creating a truly majestic character. This particular piece belongs to a private collection, making it even more exclusive and rare. It serves as a testament to the enduring legacy of Russian ballet and its profound impact on art history. Bakst was closely associated with Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, which revolutionized dance through collaborations between composers like Tchaikovsky and choreographers such as Michel Fokine. Together, they pushed boundaries in set design and stagecraft, elevating ballet into an immersive visual experience. As we gaze upon this remarkable lithograph print, we are transported back in time to witness not only Bakst's genius but also the cultural significance of Russian ballet during this era. It reminds us of how art can transcend boundaries and captivate audiences across generations.
