The performances of the Ballets Russes of Serge Diaghilev were by all accounts magnificent. From Russia with Love: Costumes for the Ballets Russes 1909-1933 traces the story of the Ballets Russes through the work of the company's designers, among whom were some of the foremost artists of the day -- costumes, original drawings, and sets which evoke the magical sights, sounds, and sense of a Ballets Russes performance.

Essays discuss the phenomenon of the Ballets Russes from its origins in St. Petersburg at the beginning of the century to its legacy as far away as Australia, decades later.
