Costume design for a Pageboy of the Fairy Mountain-Ash, from Sleeping Beauty, 1921, is a notable work by Leon Samoilovitch Bakst, a Russian painter, scene and costume designer associated with the Ballets Russes and the Art Nouveau movement. This particular design is part of Bakst's contributions to the 1921 production of "The Sleeping Beauty," a ballet in a prologue and three acts, originally choreographed by Marius Petipa to the music of Pyotr Ilyich Tchaikovsky. The ballet itself, first performed in 1890, is a cornerstone of the classical ballet repertoire, telling the story of Princess Aurora, cursed to sleep for a hundred years by the evil fairy Carabosse, and eventually awakened by the kiss of a prince.

Bakst's design for the Pageboy of the Fairy Mountain-Ash reflects the artist's renowned ability to blend color, fantasy, and historical accuracy to create visually stunning and emotionally engaging costumes. His work for the Ballets Russes often emphasized vibrant colors, rich textures, and elaborate decorations, which helped to convey the characters' personalities and the ballet's magical themes. The Pageboy's costume, characterized by its intricate details and imaginative use of color, captures the essence of the Fairy Mountain-Ash, one of the benevolent fairies attending the christening of Princess Aurora. It likely features elements inspired by Russian folklore and Art Nouveau aesthetics, both of which were significant influences on Bakst's style.

Leon Bakst's contribution to "The Sleeping Beauty" and, more broadly, to the visual identity of early 20th-century ballet, has been widely celebrated for its innovative approach to costume and set design. His work not only enhanced the narrative and emotional impact of ballet productions but also played a crucial role in the evolution of visual design in the performing arts. The costume design for the Pageboy of the Fairy Mountain-Ash stands as a testament to Bakst's artistic legacy and his enduring influence on the fields of costume design and theatrical production.
