Through 100 years of Lev Borodulin history
In 2018 Hermitage Fine Art had the opportunity to give an exclusive interview with the legend of sports photography Lev Borodulin and his son, the first fashion photographer Alexander Borodulin. Today we are glad to celebrate the 100th anniversary of Lev Borodulin as we had the chance to sold some of his masterpieces. Lev became an engaged photographer after graduation and his first publication took place in 1947 in the student newspaper.
He was the first photographer in the Soviet Union to apply the Fisheye Lens effeсt. In 1964 he was recognized by the "Photography Year Book" as a star world photography.
Hermitage Fine Art is pleased to present an exclusive interview with the legend of sports photography Leo Borodulin and the first Soviet fashion photographer Alexander Borodulin.

On 27th April, we are proud to present you the lots of our April auction, dedicated to
the World Theatre Day!

Lot 544, Russian Art Catalogue • BALLET PROGRAMME
Matilda Kshesinskaya and Imperial Theaters, « La Perle » (Pearl),
July 18, 1898, Peterhof.

Illustrations N.Samokish and E. Samokish-Sudkovskaya. Typography of Imperial Theaters. The wonderful ballet « Pearl» was created by Marius Petipa to the music of Riccardo Drigo, famous composer of the Imperial Theaters, on the occasion of the coronation of Nicholas II and Alexandra Feodorovna. The participation of Kshesinskaya, the former mistress of Nicholas II, was initially considered tactless in relation to the future empress. The most profitable part was received by Italian Pierina Legnani, the ballet was completely rehearsed. Kshesinskaya considered this a personal insult. For her leading role, Nikolai's Uncle, Grand Duke Vladimir Alexandrovich, asked on her behalf. A week later, the composer Drigo had to rewrite the finished score, and the choreographer Petipa came up with another pas de deux for Yellow Pearl. Matilda Kshesinskaya has achieved the impossible - including herself in the already staged, fully completed performance. Kshesinskaya's participation in this premiere, which took place in Moscow on May 17, 1896 at the coronation celebration, became for her the restoration of her former situation.The presented, richly illustrated and magnificent programme is a later performance of the legendary ballet in Peterhof.

Mademoiselle Kshesinskaya is listed in first place. Rare in excellent condition.

Congratulations to all the wonderful theatre, opera and ballet actors, dancers, choreographers, directors, backstage staff with the World Theatre Day!
