Painting Description
'''Costume design for the Pageboy of the Fairy Lilac, from Sleeping Beauty, 1921''' is a work by Léon Samoilovitch Bakst, a Russian painter and scene and costume designer associated with the Ballets Russes and the Art Nouveau movement. Bakst's designs were integral to the visual identity of the Ballets Russes and played a significant role in the transformation of ballet into a modernist art form.
This particular costume design was created for the 1921 production of ''The Sleeping Beauty'', a ballet in a prologue and three acts, first performed in 1890 with music by Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky and originally choreographed by Marius Petipa. Bakst's involvement in the 1921 revival by the Ballets Russes, under the direction of Sergei Diaghilev, brought a fresh perspective to the classic ballet. His designs for the costumes and sets were noted for their rich colors, elaborate ornamentation, and historical accuracy blended with fantastical elements.
The Pageboy of the Fairy Lilac costume reflects Bakst's signature style, which often included exoticism and a bold use of color. The design likely features intricate details and sumptuous fabrics, in line with Bakst's other works for the Ballets Russes. His designs not only enhanced the narrative of the ballet but also contributed to the overall aesthetic experience, influencing fashion and design beyond the stage.
Bakst's costume designs are celebrated for their artistic value and contribution to the history of performance design. They are held in high regard by museums, collectors, and scholars, and are often exhibited as examples of early 20th-century theatrical design. The costume design for the Pageboy of the Fairy Lilac remains a testament to Bakst's vision and his ability to merge practical considerations of dance with the opulent style that characterized the Ballets Russes during its most influential period.
