circa 1909-12
Oil on canvas

Private Collection, Switzerland.
Arare example of Bonnard's painting on the theme of ballet, Danseurs is a powerful, energetic work conveying the artist's fascination with the Ballets Russes, which he frequented from 1909 onward. It was May of that year that Serge Diaghilev brought the Ballets Russes to Paris, in an attempt to present an interdisciplinary display of progressive Russian art to Western audiences. These performances soon enjoyed great success, and the group returned for several years, introducing outstanding Russian composers, designers, choreographers and dancers to the Parisian public. The first season began with the public dress rehearsal of Le Pavillon d'Armide, the Dances from Prince Igor and Le Festin and included Stravinsky's legendary L'Oiseau de feu, a scene from which Bonnard depicts in the present work.
