EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite costume design for the opera Fedra by Ildebrando Pizzetti, created in 1917. The artist behind this masterpiece is none other than Bakst, Leon (1866-1924), a renowned figure in the world of theatre and opera. From a private collection, this rare find transports us back to a time when theatrical productions were grand spectacles that mesmerized audiences. The vibrant colors and intricate details of these costumes are truly awe-inspiring. Every brushstroke on this colour lithograph tells a story of passion, tragedy, and beauty. As we gaze upon it, we can almost hear the enchanting melodies and feel the intensity of emotions that must have filled the stage during those performances. Bakst's genius lies not only in his ability to create visually stunning designs but also in his deep understanding of character development. Each costume seems to embody the essence of its wearer, adding depth and dimension to their portrayal on stage. This image serves as a testament to both Bakst's artistic prowess and Pizzetti's compelling storytelling through music. It reminds us that theatre has always been an art form where various disciplines converge - from set design to scenic painting - all working harmoniously together to transport audiences into another world. As we admire this remarkable piece from history, let us appreciate the dedication and creativity that went into bringing such visions to life on stage.
