Russians Russian Ballet series murals, which included the three-part set "Giselle", were created based on the most significant Russian ballet performances. The prototype of Giselle depicted on porcelain was the beautiful prima ballerina Carlotta Grisi, the first performer of this role in the ballet of the same name by Adolf Adan, "the girl with violet eyes", as her contemporaries called her. The charming young peasant Giselle, who fell in love with the aristocrat Albert, seemed to come to life thanks to the magic of "white gold": at first, joyful, happy, and later – Vilisa, the ghost of the bride who died before the wedding, who could not stand the duplicity of her lover.
