The anonymous man was created before Coppola had decided to go public with this unbelievable discovery. He tells the important facts about the history of the subject matter and reveals the overwhelming evidence about the work. In general it is a synopsis in 8 short clips. Sokolova and Ceccetti were two of the most influential teachers in the history of The Don Quixote Ballet

Within that ballet there is a Cupid variation which also roots to the history of the subject matter and the Cupid and Psyche tale from within The Metamorphosis.

In 1917 Picasso met Olga in what Cocteau called The Cave of Taglioni while she was rehearsing for the role of a sylphide in Fokine’s rendition of the Taglioni work la Sylphide in the same role as Marie Taglioni.

The Picasso Succession website refers to Marie Taglioni as an inspiration to the artist as well as to Fokine but interestingly enough they neglect to mention Olga, nor does the Succession mention that Taglioni was the prima ballerina in the earliest rendition of Don Quixote Ballet.

The Taglioni family choreographed both La Sylphide, and Don Quixote Ballet in 1839 for the Berlin Court Opera and in 1943 in Turin for the Royal Savoy family. The history of these winter ballets related to the subject started with Didelot the teacher of Phillipo Taglioni in his work titled La Metamorphosis. Next it was called Zephyr and Flore and then La Sylphide. Three transformations which root to the goddess of the air and wind as well as fertility and a dance of death at the rite of spring.

The precursory tale to Don Quixote titled The Metamorphosis contains within it the transformation of a scholar into an ass and Pyche into a goddess. In 1917 Picasso began collaborating on the Parade Ballet creating a curtain inscribed with cosmological signs depicting a sylphide aboard Pegasus. At the mare's feet there is a globe with stars and the sun, a small dog lays in the foreground.

Picasso researched the history of the subject matter first in 1917 when he visited the Villa Farnesina frescoes of the subject by Raphael who depicted the sylphide Psyche in the nuptial imagery derived from her of Cupid taken from the tale from within Apuleius' novel. Raphaels depictions of Psyche show her after her transformation sitting at the wedding banquet of the gods which we all know greatly influenced Picasso. Psyche in Greek means Soul
