EDITORS COMMENTS
Premiere Bacchante, costume design for a production of Tcherepnin's Narcisse, 1911. This print showcases the extraordinary talent of artist Leon Bakst and his contribution to the Ballets Russes production. Published in L'Art Decoratif de Leon Bakst in Paris in 1913, this artwork is now part of a private collection. The image depicts an enchanting ballet dancer dressed as a Bacchante, exuding elegance and grace. The vibrant colors of blue and red dominate the costume design, symbolizing passion and exuberance. The elaborate dress made from luxurious fabric adds to the character's allure. Leon Bakst's illustration captures the joyous spirit of dancing and entertainment. With intricate details on every inch of the drawing, he brings to life this mythical figure from Nikolai Tcherepnin's ballet masterpiece 'Narcisse. ' This stunning piece reflects not only Bakst's artistic brilliance but also pays homage to Russian culture with its rich textures and traditional motifs. It transports us back to early 20th-century Russia when art deco was flourishing. Through this artwork, we witness the fusion between music, dance, and visual arts – a harmonious collaboration that defined Ballets Russes productions during that era. As we admire this beautiful creation by Leon Bakst today, it serves as a reminder of how art has the power to transcend time and evoke emotions through its sheer beauty.
