EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the legendary Ida Rubinstein in her iconic role as Salome. Captured by a French photographer in the 20th century, this image is now part of a private collection. Ida Rubinstein, a Russian-born ballet dancer, was renowned for her talent and grace on stage. Trained by Mikhail Fokine and having performed with the Ballets Russes, she brought an unparalleled level of artistry to every performance. In this particular portrayal of Salome, Rubinstein wears an exquisite costume designed by Leon Bakst. The photograph captures Rubinstein mid-dance, adorned in a beaded head dress that adds to the allure and mystique of her character. The orientalism-inspired costume reflects the fascination with Middle Eastern culture during the Belle Époque era. Rubinstein's full-length portrait exudes flamboyance and confidence as she strikes a pose that perfectly balances strength and delicacy. Her expressive eyes convey both power and vulnerability, capturing the essence of Salome's complex character. This print not only celebrates Ida Rubinstein's remarkable talent but also serves as a testament to the beauty and elegance found within dance itself. It transports viewers back to an era where performers like Rubinstein captivated audiences with their extraordinary skills on stage.
