This print showcases a stunning watercolor by Leon Bakst, depicting the costume for "La Peri" worn by Les Ballets Russians au theatre du Chatelet. The artwork was featured on the cover of "Comoedia illustrated" in 1911 and is now part of a private collection. Bakst, known for his exceptional talent in costume design, brings to life the enchanting world of Russian ballet with his intricate brushwork and vibrant colors. In this particular piece, he captures the essence of "La Peri" a mythical creature from Persian folklore. The delicate details of the costume are beautifully portrayed, showcasing Bakst's meticulous attention to every fold and embellishment. The flowing fabrics seem to come alive as they gracefully drape around the dancer's body, adding an ethereal quality to the overall composition. As we gaze at this remarkable artwork, we are transported back in time to witness a momentous performance at the renowned Theatre du Chatelet. The combination of Bakst's artistic genius and Les Ballets Russians' mesmerizing choreography undoubtedly created an unforgettable spectacle that captivated audiences during the early 20th century. Leonard de Selva skillfully captures this timeless masterpiece through his lens, preserving its beauty for generations to come. This print serves as a testament to both Bakst's extraordinary talent and our enduring fascination with Russian ballet history.
