EDITORS COMMENTS
The captivating print captures a mesmerizing moment from the Ballet de la Nuit, where Louis XIV, known as the Sun King, danced in a stunning costume. Created by Jean-Baptise Lully, this extravagant ballet took place on February 23rd, 1653. The French School of the 17th century beautifully portrays Costume for Night for the Ballet de la Nuit. In this image, we witness an intriguing duality between light and darkness. The figure is adorned with an elaborate headdress that looks both backward and forward simultaneously. Its intricate design features a beast-like creature with two heads: one resembling a male human face and another resembling that of a she-wolf. This fusion of animalistic elements adds to its enigmatic allure. The presence of wheatsheaves symbolizes fertility and abundance while also hinting at transformation and growth. As if caught in mid-motion, the figure appears to be dancing gracefully yet powerfully amidst shadows cast by its own form. This print not only showcases exceptional artistry but also highlights themes of duality and transformation within nature itself. It serves as a reminder that even in darkness there is beauty to be found - just like how night gives way to dawn. Displayed at Bibliotheque de l'Institut de France in Paris, France, this timeless piece continues to captivate viewers with its striking imagery and profound symbolism.
