"Aide-de-camp of the Shah, costume design for Diaghilev's production of the ballet 'Scheherazade', 1910" is a notable work by the Russian artist and stage designer Léon Samoilovitch Bakst. This costume design was created for the Ballets Russes, an itinerant ballet company founded by Sergei Diaghilev that performed throughout Europe and on other continents. 'Scheherazade' is a ballet in one act, with choreography by Michel Fokine and music by Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov, based on the story of the same name from the collection "One Thousand and One Nights."

Bakst's design for the Aide-de-camp of the Shah reflects the Orientalist aesthetic that was popular in early 20th-century Europe and is characterized by its opulent use of color, intricate patterns, and exotic detailing, which aimed to evoke the luxurious and mysterious atmosphere of a Persian court. The costume was part of the original production of 'Scheherazade', which premiered on June 4, 1910, at the Opéra Garnier in Paris and was an immediate sensation, contributing to the ballet's success and the enduring legacy of the Ballets Russes.

Léon Bakst was a key figure in the art world of the time and was particularly renowned for his work with the Ballets Russes. His designs played a crucial role in the visual identity of the company's productions, influencing fashion and decorative arts beyond the stage. The Aide-de-camp of the Shah costume design is a testament to Bakst's innovative approach to theatrical design and his ability to blend fantasy with historical accuracy to create a rich, immersive visual experience for audiences. The work remains an important piece of ballet history and is reflective of the collaborative spirit and artistic innovation that defined the Ballets Russes during its golden age.
