Nijinsky, Vaslav - Signed Photo in Petrushka 1914

Russian ballet dancer (1890-1950) and choreographer, probably the most celebrated male dancer in the entire history of dance.

Beautiful photograph signed by Nijinsky, shown in the title role in Stravinsky´s ballet "Petrushka", with a short sentiment in French and dated by Nijinsky in 1914, 3 years after he world-premiered this ballet in Paris. An original photo by The Dover Street Studios, London, 5.75 x 8 inches in size, mounted on a mat to a total size of 10.25 x 12.5 inches. Autograph photo is in excellent condition, and can be easily removed from the mat if desired. See scans of both autograph alone and with the mat.
