Boris Bilinsky (1901-1948), Marie Antoinette Costume Design, pencil and gouache on paper
Image: 18 x 12;, frame: 26 x 19;
Provenance: A San Antonio, Texas collection
Wardrobe master, set designer and movie poster artist of Russian origin, Boris Konstantinovitch Bilinsky was born in Odessa in 1900, but left Russia in 1920 to escape from the aftermath of the Revolution. He settled in Berlin where he was still able to collaborate with Russian theatres, but in 1923 he moved to Paris and worked with the Studio Albatros, a production company in Montreuil. Albatros had only been set up in 1922, but was soon to produce some of the most important masterpieces of early cinema, including Abel Gance€â„¢s mammoth Napoléon in 1927. During this period, Bilinsky designed numerous costumes for French cinema such as Jean Epstein€â„¢s Le lion de Mogols and a series of exquisite designs for Alexander Volkoff€â„¢s film Casanova.
