Serge Sudeikin's Costume Design for "Salome." Comoedia Illustre (June 5, 1913)
Florent Schmitt composed the music for "La Tragedie de Salome," famous for its dance of the seven veils. Loie Fuller starred in the title role when the ballet was first performed in 1907. Schmitt revised his score and Nicholas Guerra did the choreography for Natasha Trouhanova in 1912. Ballets Russes staged a version of Salome in 1913, choreographed by Boris Romanov and starring Tamara Karsavina. Russian artist Serge Sudeikin designed the sets and costumes.
