The article reveals the innovative use of the retrospection technique in their work, highlights the main elements of genre modification. The study is based on the material of individual groups of images belonging to different artists, but formed according to a similar typology, thus, the urgent need for a closer and more versatile view of the theater portrait as one of the key forms in the genre system of the period under consideration becomes obvious. A system analysis of the genre is used, studying the set of artistic tools that artists use to most adequately implement their ideas. An analysis of the main components of the artistic structure reveals the genre features of the ballet portrait as an important vector of the individual search for artists of the “World of Art” association.
