"Puss in Boots, from Sleeping Beauty, 1921" is a costume design created by the Russian artist Leon Samoilovitch Bakst for the ballet "The Sleeping Beauty." Bakst, a member of the Sergei Diaghilev's Ballets Russes, was renowned for his elaborate and exotic costume and set designs that revolutionized the aesthetics of ballet at the beginning of the 20th century. This particular work was part of his contributions to the 1921 production of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky's "The Sleeping Beauty," which was staged by the Ballets Russes.

The design for Puss in Boots showcases Bakst's signature style, which often included vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and a blend of historical accuracy with fantastical elements. His work not only influenced the visual aspects of ballet but also had a broader impact on the decorative arts, fashion, and interior design during the Art Nouveau and Art Deco periods.

Bakst's Puss in Boots costume would have been worn by the dancer portraying the character in the ballet's divertissement—a series of short dances in the third act where various fairy tale characters are presented at the wedding of Princess Aurora and Prince Désiré. The character of Puss in Boots, originally from the French fairy tale by Charles Perrault, is traditionally depicted as a cunning and clever cat who uses trickery to bring fortune to his low-born master.

The 1921 production of "The Sleeping Beauty" was one of the last projects Bakst worked on for the Ballets Russes before his death in 1924. His designs for the ballet are remembered for their opulence and imaginative flair, and they remain an important part of the history of theatrical design. The costume design for Puss in Boots, like many of Bakst's works, is held in high regard for its artistic value and contribution to the legacy of ballet and performance art.
