Sketch of a rehearsal, probably of the revised version of Le Sacre du Printemps Based on the arrangement of dancers and the presence of Léonide Massine directing from atop a chair, this sketch appears to be a rehearsal of the revised version of The Rite of Spring, in preparation for its re-introduction in 1920. |
