EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning costume design for the Ballet Blue God, created by R. Hahn in 1911. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Leon Bakst (1866-1924), known for his remarkable contributions to theatre and opera in Russia. This particular artwork, part of a private collection, exemplifies Bakst's exceptional talent in capturing the essence of ballet through watercolour and gouache techniques. The Ballet Blue God was a significant production by the renowned Ballets Russes, founded by Sergei Diaghilev. Bakst's costume design perfectly embodies the ethereal beauty and mystique of this ballet performance. With its intricate details and vibrant colors, including gold and white hues on paper, it transports viewers into a world where fantasy meets reality. Bakst's work not only impressed Russian art critics but also caught the attention of impresarios worldwide. His theatrical scenic painting skills were unparalleled, making him an influential figure in shaping the aesthetics of Russian ballet during that era. As we gaze upon this extraordinary image, we are reminded of Bakst's immense contribution to both fine art and performing arts history. It serves as a testament to his ability to capture emotions through visual storytelling while immersing audiences in enchanting worlds beyond imagination.
