"Costume for Narcisse by Tcherepnin" is a 1911 costume design by the renowned Russian artist Léon Bakst. The watercolor depicts two figures, likely intended for a ballet production, in dynamic poses. The woman in the foreground, wearing a swirling blue and green dress, is holding her drapery in a dramatic gesture. This design showcases Bakst’s signature use of vibrant colors, intricate patterns, and expressive figures, making it a testament to his influence on the Art Nouveau and Ballets Russes movements.
