Portraits of performers that no one living today has seen perform.

Pictured here is the great Vaslav Nijinsky. And although he is remembered as the greatest dancer who ever lived, we will never know, because he never allowed his dancing to be filmed. His reasoning? He didn’t want to cast a shadow over dancers who would succeed him. That makes him a hell of a guy, but he was also known to be completely bat-shit level crazy, so who knows. I mean just look at him. You think that getup is some kind of costume? Fuck no. He’d go to the fucking mall wearing that, and hang outside the food-court smoking Clove cigarettes.
