Design for the costume of Carabosse (Wicked Fairy Godmother), for the Ballet 'La Belle au Bois Dormant' (Sleeping Beauty), consisting of a long, red robe with double sleeves (short puff sleeves with black and red stripes over tight, red long sleeves) and large, black demon rats on the front, a white ruff collar, and black cape. A golden crown, flanked above by a conical hat, colored with red, gold, and black stripes, and with a yellow pompom on the tip, adorns the head. Hands covered with black gloves hold a long, gray cane. Black, pointed shoes peek from the bottom of the robe.
