EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the grace and elegance of Tamara Karsavina, a renowned Russian ballerina in 1911. In this image, she is depicted as Zobeide in Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's ballet Scheherazade. Karsavina, who was born in 1885 and passed away in 1978, rose to fame as a star with the Imperial Russian Ballet. Following the Revolution, Karsavina left her homeland and joined Serge Diaghilev's Ballets Russes in Paris. However, it was in England where she eventually settled that she made significant contributions to the world of ballet. Not only did she teach ballet but also played an instrumental role in establishing both the Royal Ballet and the Royal Academy of Dance. The photograph is housed within the collection of the State Museum of Theatre and Music located in St Petersburg. It beautifully showcases Karsavina's talent as well as her striking costume for Scheherazade. Her portrayal of Zobeide undoubtedly mesmerized audiences with her skillful dancing and emotive performance. This monochrome image serves as a testament to Karsavina's legacy within the performing arts industry during the early 20th century. As one gazes upon this remarkable piece of fine art, they are transported back to a time when dance was not just an occupation but rather an expression that transcended boundaries – capturing hearts worldwide through its sheer beauty and passion.
