Diaghileff: His Artistic and Private Life is a biography written by Arnold L. Haskell about the life of Sergei Diaghilev, a Russian ballet impresario who revolutionized the art of ballet in the early 20th century. The book explores Diaghilev's personal life, including his relationships with various lovers and his struggle with his homosexuality in a time when it was not widely accepted. It also delves into his professional life, including his collaborations with artists such as Igor Stravinsky, Pablo Picasso, and Jean Cocteau, as well as his founding of the Ballets Russes, which brought Russian ballet to the forefront of the international arts scene. Haskell draws on a variety of sources, including Diaghilev's personal letters and interviews with those who knew him, to provide a comprehensive and engaging portrait of this influential figure in the world of dance.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
