EDITORS COMMENTS
Francis de Croisset, a renowned French writer and dramatist, attended the enchanting Thousand and One Nights Persian ball held in Paris on May 1912. This image captures the moment as de Croisset donned an exotic costume, immersing himself in the Eastern-inspired ambiance of the evening. The Persian ball was a popular annual event during the 1910s, where Parisian high society came together to celebrate the exotic allure of the East. The Thousand and One Nights, also known as "Arabian Nights," is a collection of Middle Eastern folk tales filled with magic, romance, and adventure. De Croisset's attendance at this event showcases his appreciation for the rich cultural heritage of the East and his interest in the artistic and literary movements of the time. His elegant attire, complete with intricate patterns and vibrant colors, adds to the overall atmosphere of the evening, making it a night to remember in the history of Parisian society.
