EDITORS COMMENTS
This vibrant and enchanting print captures a stunning costume design for The Fairy Carnation, a character from the iconic ballet Sleeping Beauty. Created in 1921 by the talented artist Leon Bakst, this colour lithograph showcases his exceptional talent and attention to detail. The Fairy Carnation is depicted as an elegant and ethereal figure, adorned in a magnificent plumed headdress that adds height and grandeur to her presence. Her flowing gown, intricately designed with delicate patterns and rich colors, exudes gracefulness as it drapes around her slender frame. Bakst's mastery of color shines through in this artwork, with vivid hues that bring life to the fairy tale world of Sleeping Beauty. The soft pastels create an atmosphere of magic and wonder, transporting viewers into a realm where dreams come true. As we gaze upon this image, we can almost imagine The Fairy Carnation gracefully gliding across the stage during one of Diaghilev's Ballets Russes performances. Her poised stance suggests elegance and poise while her gentle curtsy hints at her otherworldly nature. This remarkable piece not only showcases Bakst's artistic brilliance but also serves as a testament to the enduring beauty of classical ballet. It reminds us of the power of art to transport us beyond our everyday lives into realms filled with fantasy and imagination.
