Les Facheux, a ballet in one act with music by Georges Auric; choreography by Bronislava Nijinska; scenario by Boris Kochno after Moliere's comedy-ballet; and curtain, scenery and costumes by Georges Braque, was first performed by Diaghilev's Ballets Russes in Monte Carlo on 19 January 1924 with principal dancers Lubov Tchernicheva, Anatole Vilzak, and Anton Dolin. "By the time [Auric] found himself a member of Les Six [Auric, Durey, Honegger, Milhaud, Poulenc, and Tailleferre], the style of his music - brilliant and often acidly aggressive - had become well established, and works such as the Huit poèmes de Jean Cocteau (1919) or the foxtrot Adieu, New York! (1919) show how he can be considered, along with Poulenc, the group's most typical representative. On hearing his 1921 incidental music for Molière's comédie-ballet Les fâcheux, Diaghilev asked him to transform it into a ballet. First performed in Monte Carlo . it shows a facility for mood creation and a virtuosity in the manipulation of highly varied material that presages his film music. Other successful ballets followed: Les matelots (1924) and La pastorale (1925) for Diaghilev, Les enchantements de la fée d'Alcine (1928) for Ida Rubinstein ." Jeremy Drake in Grove Music Online. Kochno "was a Russian-born writer and ballet librettist who collaborated with ballet impresario Serge Diaghilev during the last years of the Ballets Russes, then became a major influence on post-World War II French ballet. Kochno met Diaghilev in 1921 and immediately became his secretary. His first libretto for Diaghilev was the text of Igor Stravinsky's chamber opera Mavra (1922); he followed it with scenarios for such ballets as Les Fâcheux (1924), Les Matelots (1925), Ode (1928), and Le Fils prodigue (The Prodigal Son, 1929). After Diaghilev's death in 1929 Kochno continued advising on ballets. He collaborated on Cotillon and Jeux d'enfants (1932) for the new Ballet Russe de Monte Carlo, then, with choreographer George Balanchine, founded the short-lived Les Ballets in 1933. He returned to the Ballet Russe, advising the company's management until 1937. With his longtime friend Christian Bérard, a painter, and choreographer Roland Petit, he collaborated on the ballet Les Forains (1945), which led to the founding of Les Ballets des Champs-Elysées and the renaissance of French ballet; he remained with that company until 1951. He was the author of the books Le Ballet (1954) and Diaghilev et les Ballets Russes (1970)." Britannica Online "Hoyningen-Huene (1900-1968) is acknowledged as an iconic pioneer in the genre of fashion photography. His elegant pared-down style has had a dramatic impact on photographers around the world and his work continues to have relevance today, as an artist who created some of the most striking photographic portraits and compositions of the twentieth century." Artist's website "Oreste Francesco Pucciani (1916 - 1999) was a pioneer teacher of Jean-Paul Sartre's philosophy at UCLA. He was the last partner of Rudi Gernreich, fashion designer, and at the latter's death, established the ACLU Rudi Gernreich-Oreste Pucciani Endowment Fund to support the fight for LGBT rights."

Zustand: Very good. 1947., 1947. Very good. - An original 9 inch high by 6-1/2 inch wide silver-hued black & white photograph of the Russian prima ballerina Tamara Karsavina by Edmund Harrington, though the photographer is not here identified. The image portrays Tamara Karsavina attired in her costume with pinafore dress, jacket and kokoshnik designed by Natalia Goncharova. The photograph is inscribed & signed in Russian within the image by the Prima Ballerina. Roughly translated, the inscription reads: ["To dear Grigory Vasilyevich, in memory of pleasant friendly meetings and as a pledge of a future reunion / Tamara Karsavina / 1947"]. The photograph is mounted onto 10-1/4 inch high by 7-1/7 inch wide heavy cream stock. The edges of the mount are soiled and there is tiny tear in the top left of the photograph. Very good. "One of the solos danced by Karsavina was the Russian Dance for which her blue costume, pinafore-dress, jacket and kokoshnik was designed by Natalia Goncharovs. Karsavina was photographed by Apeda in a first version of this costume, wearing the dress over a white? long-sleeved round-necked blouse, reproduced in the Sketch, 29 April 1925, and in the second version, the jacket replacing the blouse by Edmund Harrington, ca.1929". [Quoted from the "Victoria & Albert Museum"]. Renowned for her beauty, the Russian prima ballerina Tamara Platonovna Karsavina (1885-1978) was a principal dancer of the Imperial Russian Ballet and subsequently of Sergei Diaghilev's Russian Ballet. Settling in Great Britain, she is recognized as one of the founders of modern British Ballet and assisted in the establishment of The Royal Ballet and the Royal Academy of Dance. The costume designer Natalia Goncharova (1881-1962) was a Russian avant-garde artist, painter, costume designer, writer, illustrator, and set designer. She and her partner Mikhail Larionov were founding members of Moscow's first radical independent exhibiting group, the Jack of Diamonds, and the radical Donkey's Tail. She and Larionov invented Rayonism. She moved to Paris and was a member of the German art movement Der Blaue Reiter.…
