This print showcases the exquisite stage design for the ballet Sleeping Beauty, created by renowned artist Bakst in 1921. The intricate details and vibrant colors of this piece transport viewers into a world of enchantment and fantasy. Bakst's genius is evident in his ability to capture the essence of Tchaikovsky's iconic ballet through his scenic painting and set design. Every brushstroke on this watercolor on paper masterpiece reflects his deep understanding of theatrical scenic painting. The image portrays a scene from Sleeping Beauty, where Prince Charming awakens Princess Aurora with true love's kiss. The opulent backdrop features a grand castle surrounded by lush gardens and shimmering stars overhead, evoking an ethereal atmosphere that perfectly complements the magical tale. Bakst's expertise in graphic arts shines through as he seamlessly blends elements of Russian culture with classical ballet aesthetics. His attention to detail is remarkable, from the delicate lacework adorning Aurora's gown to the ornate architectural features of the castle. Preserved within a private collection, this rare gem offers us a glimpse into Bakst's artistic brilliance and serves as a testament to his lasting impact on stage design. It reminds us why Sleeping Beauty continues to captivate audiences worldwide, thanks not only to Tchaikovsky's timeless music but also to visionary artists like Bakst who bring these stories to life visually.
