About this work

Robert Montenegro made a print in 1912. It shows Vaslav Nijinsky as the dancer Daphnis. The image is tall and lean, not like Nijinsky’s real body. The print used black ink with gold highlights. It was one of ten drawings sold to Cyril Beaumont. Beaumont wanted to publish them in a small book. Look up the Victoria and Albert Museum.
