The Art of Nijinsky is a 1913 book written by Geoffrey Whitworth which analyzes the art of Vaslav Nijinsky.[1] At 110 pages,[1] it features 10 colored illustrations by Dorothy Mullock,[2]
The watercolor illustrations by Mullock,[3] have been called "remarkable."[4] The text, itself called "enthusiastic,"[5] examines the career of Nijinsky in both the art-form and choreography,[6] as well as appreciating Nijinsky's achievements.[7] It also touches on the history of Russian ballet and related literature.[6] In 1914, The Art of Nijinsky sold for $1.10,[8] and it is considered to be the "first book to appear in appreciation of his art."[9] However, Edward Gordon Craig felt that the book was unnecessary, stating that "the art of Nijinsky is no art."[10]
