Lucienne Pageot-Rousseaux

French illustrator, painter and graphic artist Lucienne Pageot-Rousseaux illustrated and produced lithographs of several Paris opera scenes of the famous Russian ballet dancer and choreographer Serge Lifar (1904-1986), who was one of the dancing stars of the 1930s and 1940s in Paris. Lifar was also a director, writer, dance theoretician, and collector. Pageot-Rousseaux sketched in charcoal movements mainly from the worlds of dance and entertainment, but she also painted landscapes, bouquets, post-impressionistic still lifes.
