"Anna Pavlova dressed as Diana, 1910" is a notable costume design by the Russian artist Leon Samoilovitch Bakst, created for the legendary ballerina Anna Pavlova. Bakst, a member of the influential artistic circle Mir iskusstva (World of Art) and later associated with the Ballets Russes, was renowned for his innovative and opulent costume and set designs that revolutionized the aesthetics of ballet in the early 20th century.

The costume was designed for Pavlova's portrayal of the Roman goddess Diana, known in Greek mythology as Artemis, the goddess of the hunt, wilderness, and chastity. This particular design highlights Bakst's signature use of vivid colors, rich textures, and intricate details, which not only complemented the dancer's movements but also added a visual spectacle to the performance.

Anna Pavlova, one of the most celebrated dancers of her time, was known for her ethereal quality and technical prowess. Her collaboration with Bakst on this costume reflects the synergy between dancer and designer, where visual art and performance art met to create a memorable and iconic image. The costume for Diana would have been designed to enhance Pavlova's delicate and graceful interpretation of the deity, emphasizing her agility and the thematic elements of the huntress.

The design is emblematic of the Ballets Russes' impact on the world of dance and fashion, as the company's productions often blurred the lines between different art forms, leading to a cultural exchange that resonated beyond the stage. Bakst's work, including the costume for Anna Pavlova as Diana, played a crucial role in this artistic revolution, leaving a lasting legacy on the visual language of ballet and performance costume design.

While the costume itself is a testament to the collaborative spirit of the Ballets Russes era, it also stands as a piece of art in its own right, showcasing Bakst's mastery of form, color, and cultural synthesis. The design for Anna Pavlova as Diana is preserved in historical records and continues to be studied and admired by scholars, artists, and enthusiasts of ballet and costume design.
