- Russian Ballet in caricatures
- We reproduce here some of the
caricatures first published in 1903 in the book Russian Ballet
in Caricatures. They come from the pen of the extraordinary Legat
brothers: Nikolai and Sergei. Graduates of the St.Petersburg
Imperial Ballet School, the Legat brothers rose to the positions
of premier danseurs and partnered many of great ballerinas of
their time. Their legacy to the ballet world is not only their
pedagogical and choreographic work, but also their perceptive
artistic eye and sense of humor.
