The piece features opulent fabrics, elaborate detailing, and a striking palette that captures the viewer's imagination and transports them to a world of fantasy and opulence. This design not only highlights Bakst's artistic prowess but also his ability to evoke a sense of narrative and character through visual elements alone.
