EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning costume design for the ballet Daphnis et Chloe by Ravel, created in 1921. The watercolor on paper artwork, done by the talented Leon Bakst (1866-1924), is part of a private collection. The ballet Daphnis et Chloe was first performed at the Paris Opera on June 20th, 1921. This particular illustration and costume design were crafted by Bakst specifically for this iconic performance by the Ballets Russes de Serge Diaghilev. Leon Bakst, a renowned Russian painter and decorator, beautifully captures the essence of this ballet through his intricate sketch. The delicate brushwork and attention to detail bring life to the female dancer depicted in this image. As we gaze upon this enchanting ballerina, we are transported into a world of grace and elegance. Her flowing gown seems to float effortlessly as she gracefully moves across the stage. Every line and color choice in Bakst's painting reflects his deep understanding of movement and form. This print serves as a testament to both Bakst's artistic genius and Ravel's timeless composition. It reminds us of the profound impact that these creative minds had on the world of dance during their era. Giancarlo Costa has skillfully captured this masterpiece through his lens, allowing us to appreciate its beauty even from afar.
