EDITORS COMMENTS
This image captures the fourth tableau from Rimsky-Korsakov's historic opera "Sadko," performed in 1898. In this scene, titled "The Quayside at Novgorod Where Sadko Wins His Bet," Sadko, a legendary hero from Novgorod, Russia, is depicted at the water's edge, surrounded by an excited crowd. Sadko, a skilled musician and fisherman, had made a bold bet with the Volkhv, the local sorcerer. The Volkhv had challenged Sadko to catch a golden fish, a creature of legend, and bring it to him. With determination and skill, Sadko cast his net into the water and patiently waited. As the sun began to set, the crowd grew restless, but Sadko remained hopeful. Suddenly, his net began to tremble, and a magnificent golden fish emerged, glinting in the fading light. The crowd erupted in cheers, and Sadko triumphantly presented the fish to the Volkhv, winning the bet and securing his place in Novgorod's history. This tableau is a visual representation of the rich musical and historical tale that Rimsky-Korsakov brought to life through his opera. The image captures the excitement and anticipation of the crowd, the beauty of the golden fish, and the satisfaction of Sadko's victory. The quayside setting adds to the authenticity of the scene, transporting us back to Novgorod in the late 19th century. Rimsky-Korsakov's "Sadko" is a masterpiece of Russian opera, and this image is a testament to the power of music and storytelling to transport us to another time and place.
