EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and enchanting print captures the exquisite costume design for "The Queen and Her Pages" from the iconic ballet Sleeping Beauty, created in 1921 by Leon Bakst. The stunning color lithograph showcases the intricate details of this magnificent production, which was part of the renowned Ballets Russes Diaghilev. In this image, we see a regal queen adorned in an ermine train, emanating grace and elegance. Her plumed headdress adds a touch of grandeur to her majestic presence. Surrounding her are pages dressed in elaborate costumes, each holding feathers with utmost precision as they form a procession fit for royalty. The attention to detail is remarkable; every feather seems to come alive on paper, creating an atmosphere of opulence and splendor. The pageboys and servants stand dutifully beside their queen, adding depth to the composition while showcasing Bakst's mastery in capturing movement through fabric. This print not only pays homage to Bakst's exceptional talent but also serves as a reminder of the timeless beauty found within classical ballet productions. It transports us back to an era where artistry flourished on stage, leaving audiences captivated by its magic. As part of The Stapleton Collection held privately, this rare glimpse into history allows us to appreciate both Russian culture and artistic innovation that continues to inspire generations today.
