About the Item

Photograph and signature. Vaslav Niyinsky (kyiv, 1890-London, 1950), 1914. Vaslav Niyinsky (transliterated Vátslav Fomich Nizhinski) was a Polish born Russian ballet dancer and choreographer, considered one of the most gifted in history, notable above all for his meeting with Sergei Diaghilev, a member of the St. Petersburg elite and an important patron of the arts, who promoted Russian visual and musical art abroad, particularly in Paris. During the First World War, Nijinsky was placed under house arrest in Hungary for being a Russian citizen. Diaghilev managed to get Nijinsky out of the country thanks to the intervention of Alfonso XIII and his Oficina Pro Cautivos (Office for the Protection of Prisoners). The signature is accompanied by a photograph of the employees, which were used as business cards at the time (cabinet photograph), and is dated 1914. · Size: 58x6,5x49 cms. int: 40,5x31 cm International Buyers – Please Note: for those articles that need Export Permits (those older than 100 years), the obtaining of the Permit will be processed without additional expenses (if you choose the seller sends it to you), but the period for the obtention of it may vary from 10 to 35 days.
