Le dieu bleu a young rajah 1911

This costume design by Léon Bakst, created in 1911, depicts a young Rajah adorned in lavish garments. The figure wears a vibrant orange robe with intricate paisley patterns and white embellishments, topped with a white turban adorned with pearls and a blue jewel. The costume's lavishness, reminiscent of the Ballets Russes' style, reflects the artistic trends of early 20th century Russia. The design, likely for a stage production, captures the opulence and exoticism associated with the East in Western imagination.
