Date: 1918.Drawing with a costume design for Fokine's ballet Thamar,' by Léon Bakst. This ballet was premiered at the Théâtre du Châtelet in Paris in 1912. Trying to restage the exotic success of 'Schéhérazade', Serge Siaghilev chose to present this ballet in the third season of the Ballets Russes, although without success. Despite finding the ballet rather insipid, the public was pleased with Bakst's conical setting for the stage design, piled with colorful cushions, and the ravishing costumes in the Georgian manner: great black cloaks against the sheer, high walls, which contrasted with the reds and blues present in the crowd scenes. The inspiration on orientalist styles, as well as the sensuality with which he managed to highlight the dancers' bodies, are characteristic of Bakst's desig

Sketch with Kali and a Young Boy ca. 1800 India (Punjab Hills, Kangra) This finely rendered drawing sheet has two discreet images, oriented in different directions. The ensemble with Kali seems to have predominated, not only in size but also through the use of color. White has been used to strengthen the image, and most of the ink lines that comprise the image are superimposed over it. It has also been used—for example, in the hair of the goddess and her sword—to make corrections. Color was added as well, moving the drawing further toward a finished work instead of a mere sketch..

The Passing of King Arthur. Artist: Julia Margaret Cameron (British (born India), Calcutta 1815-1879 Kalutara, Ceylon). Dimensions: 35 x 27.3 cm (13 3/4 x 10 3/4 in. ). Date: 1874.In 1874 Tennyson asked Cameron to make photographic illustrations for a new edition of his Idylls of the King, a recasting of the Arthurian legends. Responding that both knew that "it is immortality to me to be bound up with you," Cameron willingly accepted the assignment. Costuming family and friends, she made some 245 exposures to arrive at the handful she wanted for the book. Ultimately--and predictably--she was unhappy with the way her photographs looked reduced in scale and translated into wood engravings, and she chose to issue a deluxe edition, at her own risk, that included a dozen full size photographic prints in each of two volumes.
