EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Echo Abandonee, 1922" by Leon Bakst is a mesmerizing portrayal of a woman lost in thought. The image, published in the International Studio magazine in March 1923, showcases Bakst's exceptional talent and artistic vision. In this portrait, we see a solitary female figure sitting gracefully on an oriental-inspired chair. She wears an exquisite purple dress that beautifully contrasts with her surroundings. Her attire hints at the fashion trends of the roaring twenties, while also evoking elements of Greek mythology. The lady's enigmatic expression is enhanced by her dark sunglasses and spectacles, adding an air of mystery to the scene. With one slipper delicately placed on the floor beside her, she seems abandoned or forgotten amidst her own thoughts. Bakst's use of watercolor and pencil creates a soft yet vibrant color palette that brings depth to every hue used. The artist masterfully captures both light and shadow to highlight intricate details such as folds in fabric and subtle facial features. This print serves as a testament to Bakst's ability to convey complex emotions through his artistry. It invites viewers into a world where mythological concepts merge with early twentieth-century aesthetics, leaving us captivated by its beauty and intrigued by its narrative.
