EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary ballet dancer Vaslav Nijinsky in his mesmerizing performance of "Danse siamoise from the Orientales" in 1910. The image, taken by renowned French photographer Eugene Druet, showcases Nijinsky's extraordinary talent and grace as he leaps through the air with effortless elegance. Nijinsky's striking costume, designed by Leon Bakst, transports us to a world of exoticism and theatricality. The intricate details of his dress reflect the rich cultural influences that inspired this piece. With every movement, Nijinsky brings to life the choreography created by Michel Fokine, who masterfully blends elements of Siamese dance with classical ballet. The photograph not only captures a moment frozen in time but also serves as a testament to Nijinsky's immense contribution to the world of dance. His legacy continues to inspire dancers and audiences alike, transcending boundaries both geographically and artistically. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this gelatin silver print is part of our heritage art collection that celebrates iconic figures like Nijinsky who have shaped the history of performing arts. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness an unforgettable performance that forever changed the landscape of ballet.
