Nicolai Legat made prints that poke fun at dancers and musicians he knew. He worked with his brother Sergei, also a ballet star, on these funny sketches. The prints show the backstage side of the Russian Imperial Ballet. Sergei was seen as the top male dancer before he died young. Their prints give a playful look at the people they worked with.
