EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite stage design for the ballet Cleopatre, created in 1909 by renowned artist Leon Bakst. The image, sourced from a private collection, transports us to a world of enchantment and opulence. In this mesmerizing scene, we witness the convergence of womanhood, beauty, and music against an oriental backdrop. The theatrical setting exudes grandeur and elegance as it captures the essence of Russian ballet at its finest. Bakst's mastery is evident in his intricate graphic arts that bring to life the legendary figure of Cleopatra.

This particular piece was crafted for Ida Rubinstein, one of Diaghilev's most celebrated dancers. The color lithograph beautifully captures every detail of Bakst's theatrical scenic painting. It evokes a sense of awe and wonder that only opera and ballet can inspire. As we gaze upon this print, we are transported back in time to experience the magic and allure that once graced stages around Russia.
