Summary/Abstract: This essay offers an analysis of the uses of the pastoral in the art of the Silver Age. The emphasis falls on the most pronounced tendency in the European culture of the period – art synthesis. The expressions of the synthesis are sought along the lines of the uses of the pastoral code in literature, painting, and theatre, as well as in works that mark the beginnings of ballet modernism.
