EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Ohe! Ohe! Horrible dragon, O swallow me not! Spare the life of poor Loge!", we are transported into a mythical world filled with drama and danger. Created by the talented artist Arthur Rackham in 1910, this illustration is taken from his work "The Rhinegold and the Valkyrie". The scene depicts a thrilling moment where Wotan and Loge use their cunning to trick Alberich, who has transformed himself into a fearsome dragon. The tension is palpable as Loge pleads for his life, desperately hoping to escape being swallowed by the terrifying creature. Rackham's masterful use of color lithography brings this fantastical realm to life, immersing us in its rich hues and intricate details. From the menacing serpent-like form of the dragon to the flowing cloak worn by Wotan, every element adds depth and intensity to the composition. This print captures not only an iconic moment from Wagner's opera "The Ring Cycle" but also showcases Rackham's exceptional talent for storytelling through art. It invites us to delve into Norse mythology and experience an epic battle between gods and creatures of legend. As we gaze upon this extraordinary artwork, we can almost hear the clash of swords and feel our hearts race with anticipation. It serves as a reminder that even in moments of great peril, there is always hope for survival if one possesses wit and resourcefulness.
