EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases Alois Jelen, a renowned opera singer of the 19th century, in his iconic role as Max in Carl Maria von Weber's opera "Der Freischütz". Painted by Antonin Machek in 1826, this oil on canvas masterpiece measures an impressive 79x58 cm and is currently housed at the National Gallery in Prague. In this striking portrait, Jelen embodies the character of Max with great intensity and passion. Dressed in a meticulously detailed costume complete with a hat and gun, he exudes both strength and vulnerability. The artist has skillfully captured every nuance of Jelen's expression, revealing his deep connection to the music he brings to life on stage. Jelen was not only a gifted singer but also a talented composer and musician himself. His performance as Max undoubtedly left audiences spellbound during that era. This painting serves as a testament to his immense talent and contribution to Czechoslovakian music. As we gaze upon this remarkable artwork today, we are transported back to the vibrant world of 19th-century opera. It reminds us of the power that music holds over our emotions and how it can transport us into different realms altogether. This print is truly an exquisite piece that pays homage to both Alois Jelen's extraordinary talent and Antonin Machek's artistic prowess.
