Léon Bakst was born as Leyb-Khaim Izrailevich (later Samoylovich) Rosenberg on February 8, 1866, and died on December 28, 1924. He was a Jewish Russian painter, set designer, and costumer. He was a part of Sergei Diaghilev's circle and the Ballets Russes, for which he made sets and costumes that were exotic and full of color. He made the sets for movies like Carnaval (1910), Spectre de la rose (1911), Daphnis and Chloe (1912), The Sleeping Princess (1921), and others.Bakst showed his work with the Society of Watercolorists at the start of the 1890s. Between 1893 and 1897, he lived in Paris and went to the Académie Julian to study. He still often visited Saint Petersburg. After the middle of the 1890s, Bakst joined the group of writers and artists that Sergei Diaghilev and Benois had put together. In 1899, Diaghilev and Benois started the influential magazine Mir iskusstva, which means "World of Art." Because of the pictures he made for this magazine, he became famous.Bakst died of lung problems on December 27, 1924, in a clinic in Rueil Malmaison, near Paris (oedema). In a very moving ceremony, his many fans, who included some of the most famous artists of the time, poets, musicians, dancers, and critics, formed a funeral procession to take his body to its final resting place in the Cimetière des Batignolles in Paris.
