EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the legendary Michel Fokine in the iconic ballet "The Firebird" by I. Stravinsky, performed in 1920. The image showcases Fokine's graceful presence as he embodies the character of this mythical creature on stage. "The Firebird" was a groundbreaking production by the Ballets Russes, a Russian ballet company founded by Sergei Diaghilev. This avant-garde performance combined music composed by Igor Stravinsky with choreography created by Fokine himself. The porcelain sculpture featured in the photograph adds an artistic touch to this fine art image, emphasizing the fusion of different art forms within this production. Fokine's talent and innovation revolutionized classical ballet during his time with the Ballets Russes. Alongside renowned dancers like Tamara Karsavina, he pushed boundaries and brought new life to traditional dance forms through his choreographic vision. This particular print is part of a private collection that preserves not only Fokine's legacy but also highlights Russia's rich cultural heritage in theater and opera arts. Its overglaze decoration technique enhances its aesthetic appeal while capturing a moment frozen in time from one of history's most influential performances. As we admire this remarkable portrait, we are reminded of Michel Fokine's immense contribution to Russian ballet and how his collaboration with Stravinsky forever changed the landscape of dance as an art form.
