This is a set design by Léon Bakst for the second act of the 1912 ballet "Daphnis and Chloe" composed by Maurice Ravel. The painting captures a whimsical and stylized landscape with tall, slender red rock formations in the foreground and a distant blue sky with white clouds and stars above. The scene conjures up a fantastical world, showcasing Bakst's signature use of vibrant colors and decorative motifs.
