Дочь фараона
In 1894 the Ballerina Mathilde Kschessinskaya was named "Prima Ballerina" of the Imperial Ballet. Nevertheless, it was Legnani who proved to be Petipa's greatest muse, as nearly every new ballet he mounted throughout his remaining years with the Imperial Ballet featured her in the principal rôle. Among these works: "Raymonda" in 1898, and "Les Ruses d'Amour" ("The Pranks of Love") in 1900. Kschessinskaya in turn was given almost all of the leads in Petipa's revivals of older works, among them his 1898 revival of "The Pharaoh's Daughter" and his 1899 revival of "La Esmeralda".
