EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the exquisite Tamara Karsavina in her stunning costume for Le Dieu Bleu, a ballet performance that took place in 1912. The photo, taken by an anonymous French photographer from the 20th century, showcases Karsavina's immense talent as a Russian ballet dancer. Le Dieu Bleu was composed by Reynaldo Hahn and choreographed by Michel Fokine, both renowned figures in the world of dance. This iconic ballet was first performed by the Ballets Russes and featured costumes designed by Leon Bakst. Karsavina's portrayal of the character is beautifully captured in this image. Not only was she a founding member of The Royal Ballet and Royal Academy of Dance in London, but she also left an indelible mark on the dance world with her exceptional skills and performances. In this photograph, she exudes grace and elegance as she poses seated, embodying the essence of her character. The belle époque era is evident through every detail - from Karsavina's elaborate costume to her poised posture. This image transports us back to early twentieth-century dance culture, where dancers like Karsavina were celebrated for their artistry. Bridgeman Images has preserved this remarkable piece of history through their fine art collection. It serves as a testament to Tamara Karsavina's legacy as one of the most influential ballerinas of her time.
