EDITORS COMMENTS
This portrait captures the essence of Serge Lifar, the renowned ballet dancer and choreographer, in his prime during the jazz age of the 1930s. The image, taken in 1934, showcases Lifar's charisma and grace as he gazes off into the distance, seemingly lost in thought. The backdrop of the theater and stage sets the scene for this iconic figure of the London cabaret and nightlife scene. Born in Ukraine in 1902, Lifar's early years were spent training in Russia before he moved to Paris to study under the legendary ballet master, Serge Diaghilev. He quickly rose to prominence as a dancer and choreographer, bringing a fresh and innovative approach to the world of ballet. The 1930s were a golden era for Lifar, as he captivated audiences with his electrifying performances and groundbreaking choreography. His unique style, which blended classical ballet with modern influences, was a breath of fresh air in the staid world of ballet. This portrait is a testament to Lifar's artistry and the magnetic energy he brought to the stage. The 1930s were a time of change and innovation, and Lifar was at the forefront of it all. This image is a reminder of the enduring impact he had on the world of dance and the arts, and continues to inspire dancers and audiences alike.
