EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the mesmerizing cover of a symbolist and artistic journal titled "Bird of Paradise (Jar-Ptiza)" which was published in Berlin between 1921-22. Created by the Russian School in the 20th century, this color lithograph is an exquisite piece of art that emanates both mystery and beauty. The image depicts a stunning bird with vibrant plumage, known as the Bird of Paradise, soaring gracefully above a river. The intricate details and vivid colors bring this mythical creature to life, capturing the imagination of anyone who gazes upon it. The artist's skillful use of color lithography enhances every feather on its majestic tail, making it seem almost ethereal. Published by Russian emigres in Berlin during a time when political turmoil forced many artists to seek refuge abroad, this journal served as an important platform for creative expression within the diaspora community. It became a sanctuary where these talented individuals could share their unique perspectives through various forms of art. The cover design itself reflects elements from Russian folklore and folk art traditions while incorporating symbolic imagery such as firebirds or "loiseau de feu". These motifs were often associated with Igor Stravinsky's famous ballet "The Firebird" adding another layer of significance to this composition. Preserved in the Bibliotheque des Arts Decoratifs in Paris, France, this remarkable artwork continues to inspire awe even after all these years. Its fusion of fantasy and reality transports viewers into a world where imagination knows no bounds. As we admire this extraordinary piece captured by Bridgeman Images' lens, we are reminded once again why fine art has such enduring power - it allows us to glimpse into realms beyond our own existence.
