EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite set design for Act II of a Ballet Russes production of Maurice Ravel's "Daphnis and Chloe" in 1912. Created by the talented artist Leon Bakst, this artwork was published in L'Art Decoratif de Leon Bakst in Paris in 1913. The image transports us to a mythical landscape inspired by Greek mythology, with lush greenery and towering trees that create a serene glade. The vibrant colors and intricate details bring life to the scene, capturing the essence of nature's beauty. In this enchanting setting, we see a female figure gracefully positioned amidst the picturesque scenery. Her presence adds an element of elegance and mystery to the composition, evoking emotions tied to both art deco aesthetics and classical ballet. Bakst's mastery is evident through his skillful use of pencil and watercolor techniques, which breathe life into every stroke. This artwork exemplifies his ability to merge various artistic elements seamlessly while paying homage to Russian culture. As we admire this remarkable piece from the Museum of Decorative Arts in Paris, we are reminded of how art can transcend time and transport us into different worlds. It serves as a testament to Bakst's immense talent as well as his contribution to both visual arts and performing arts during the early 20th century.
