"Scenery Design from Phèdre, 1917 by Léon Bakst" is a notable work by the Russian artist and stage designer Léon Samoilovitch Bakst, who was a key figure in the art world during the early 20th century. This particular piece was created for the production of "Phèdre," a tragedy by the French dramatist Jean Racine first performed in 1677. Bakst's design was part of his work with the Ballets Russes, a groundbreaking ballet company that revolutionized the performing arts during its time under the direction of impresario Sergei Diaghilev.

Léon Bakst was renowned for his lavish and exotic designs, which often featured bold colors, intricate patterns, and a fusion of historical and fantastical elements. His work for "Phèdre" in 1917 reflects his distinctive style and his ability to create a visual spectacle that complemented the dramatic intensity of Racine's play. The scenery design for "Phèdre" would have been part of a larger body of work that contributed to the visual storytelling of the production, setting the mood and atmosphere for the audience and enhancing the narrative.

Bakst's contributions to stage design were influential in the development of modern theatrical aesthetics, and his work on "Phèdre" is a testament to his talent in transforming classical texts into vibrant, contemporary performances. The scenery design from "Phèdre" not only served its immediate purpose in the 1917 production but also stands as a historical artifact that offers insight into the innovative artistry of the Ballets Russes and the evolution of stage design in the early 20th century.
