"Costume design for a Mazurka (Lady), from Sleeping Beauty, 1921" is a notable work by Léon Samoilovitch Bakst, a Russian painter and scene and costume designer associated with the Ballets Russes and the Art Nouveau movement. Bakst was renowned for his innovative and lavish costume designs, which played a significant role in the transformation of ballet aesthetics in the early 20th century.

This particular costume design was created for the 1921 production of "The Sleeping Beauty," a ballet in a prologue and three acts, originally choreographed by Marius Petipa to the music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. Bakst's design was for a female dancer performing the Mazurka, a traditional Polish folk dance that is characterized by its lively tempo and triple meter, often incorporated into classical ballets for its spirited and stylized movements.

Bakst's design reflects the opulence and attention to detail that were hallmarks of his work. The costume likely features rich fabrics, intricate patterns, and a harmonious color palette, all of which were intended to complement the choreography and music, as well as to enhance the visual spectacle of the ballet. His designs were not only aesthetically pleasing but also carefully considered the functionality and movement of the dancer, allowing for the full expression of the choreography.

The costume design for the Mazurka (Lady) is an example of Bakst's contribution to the visual identity of "The Sleeping Beauty" and his broader impact on the world of theater design. His work remains influential and is studied by scholars of theater, fashion, and art history for its cultural significance and artistic merit. The design is preserved in various collections and is often exhibited in museums as an example of early 20th-century costume design and its role in the performing arts.
