The artwork titled “Drawing young divinity Narcisse costume, ballet Diaghilev” was created by Leon Bakst in 1911. This piece belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and falls under the genre of design.
The artwork depicts a stylized figure, possibly representing a mythical or divine entity, depicted in a rich, dark green hue. The figure has a dynamic posture with an arched back and elongated limbs, giving an impression of movement and grace. The body is adorned with intricate detailing that suggests foliage or feathers, enhancing its fantastical nature. The head, adorned with large, twisted horns, reinforces the mythical appearance. This creation reflects Bakst’s affiliation with theatrical design, showcasing his talent for imaginative and vivid costume design for the ballet.
