EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Ivan Yershov in his mesmerizing portrayal of Kashchey, taken in 1918. The image captures the essence of this iconic character from Russian folklore, known as Koschei the Immortal or Koschei the Deathless. Yershov's intense gaze and commanding presence bring to life the mythical villain who possesses immortality through a hidden soul. The photograph is a testament to the rich history of theatre and opera in Moscow, where this performance took place. It serves as a reminder of the immense talent that has graced these stages throughout time. Preserved within the archives of The Russian State Library, this fine art image allows us to delve into an era long gone but not forgotten. Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov's opera "Kashchey" undoubtedly inspired this production, with its haunting melodies and dramatic storyline. Yershov's interpretation breathes life into Kashchey's malevolence and cunning nature. As we admire this anonymous piece of artistry captured on film, we are transported back to a bygone era when ballet dancers like Ivan Yershov enthralled audiences with their impeccable technique and theatrical prowess. This print is a window into both historical significance and artistic excellence.
