Ethelbert White, ARWS (1891-1972) A scene from Diaghilev's Ballets Russes Black outline print coloured by hand in watercolour and gouache Signed in the block 22cm x 26.5cm From Cyril Beaumont's 'Impressions of the Russian Ballet', 1918-21, each of 40 copies. Beaumont was a renowned theatrical bookseller, critic and close friend of Diaghilev and the Ballets Russes. Most of the hand-colouring for booklets was the work of Beaumont and his wife, Alice, and it is possible that both were also involved in colouring the prints, although eventually other artists were employed on both projects.
