EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Nijinsky's iconic Faun Costume from the ballet "L'Apres Midi d'un Faune" by Claude Debussy. The costume, designed by Leon Bakst for the 7th season of the Ballets Russes in 1912, is a true masterpiece of art and dance. In this front cover image taken from the programme, we are immediately drawn to the vibrant colors and intricate details of Bakst's design. The faun's leaf-covered body appears ethereal against a backdrop of lush foliage, creating an enchanting atmosphere that transports us into a mythical realm. Nijinsky, one of history's most celebrated dancers, brings this costume to life with his graceful movements and unparalleled talent. His portrayal of the faun revolutionized ballet and pushed artistic boundaries with its sensuality and symbolism. The photograph captures not only the beauty of Nijinsky in his role but also pays homage to Bakst's visionary creativity. It serves as a reminder of their enduring legacy within both the world of dance and visual arts. Displayed prominently on our walls or cherished in personal collections, this print allows us to appreciate these extraordinary artists while adding an air of elegance and sophistication to any space. It is a timeless piece that celebrates the intersection between dance, design, and imagination – capturing our hearts just as it did over a century ago.
