EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning costume design for the ballet "Le Dieu Bleu" created by Leon Bakst in 1912. The artwork, rendered with watercolor on paper, depicts an enchanting female dancer adorned in exquisite Indian dress and accessories. The ballet, performed by the renowned Ballets Russes, mesmerized audiences with its portrayal of Hindu mythology and legend. Translating to "The Blue God" this production featured music composed by Reynaldo Hahn and choreography by Michel Fokine. In this image, we witness the dancer's graceful movements as she embodies the character of a bayadere or temple dancer. Her attire reflects an orientalist influence, showcasing vibrant colors and intricate details that evoke South Asian culture. Notably, her ensemble includes a nose ring that adds to the exotic allure of her appearance. The full-length composition allows us to appreciate every aspect of this remarkable costume design. Preserved in a private collection today, this artwork continues to captivate viewers with its fusion of Russian creativity and Eastern inspiration. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time to witness the beauty and artistry that unfolded on stage during those early 20th-century performances.
