EDITORS COMMENTS
A La Russe: Lydia Kyasht, the Enchanting Russian Ballerina This postcard, dating back to September 1925, showcases the radiant and charismatic Russian ballet dancer, Lydia Kyasht. Lydia, a much-admired artist of the dance world, had made her way to England in 1908, leaving an indelible mark on the British stage with her extraordinary talents. In this image, Lydia is depicted in the midst of her self-devised entertainment, "A La Russe," which she took on tour during 1925 and 1926. The name "A La Russe" translates to "In the Russian Style," and the performance was a showcase of Lydia's unparalleled skills and the rich cultural heritage of her homeland. The postcard, featuring the Kings Theatre in Hammersmith, London, serves as a testament to the excitement and anticipation that surrounded Lydia's performances during the 1920s. She is seen here with a warm, inviting smile, her eyes sparkling with the joy of dance. The elegant scarf draped around her head adds an air of mystery and allure, further enhancing her enchanting persona. As the twinkling lights of the theatre beckon in the background, one can almost hear the hushed whispers of the audience, eagerly awaiting the start of the show. Lydia Kyasht's "A La Russe" was more than just a performance; it was an immersive experience that transported its audience to a world of magic, beauty, and unforgettable memories. This postcard, a cherished piece from The Michael Diamond Collection, offers a glimpse into the past, allowing us to relive the magic of Lydia Kyasht's extraordinary career.
