EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Fafner in his cave, 1906" takes us on a mesmerizing journey into the world of Norse mythology. The image, captured through a colour litho technique by Hermann Hendrich, showcases Fafner, the fearsome dragon from Richard Wagner's opera "Der Ring des Nibelungen". The scene transports us to a mystical grotto where Fafner lies peacefully asleep amidst an enchanting forest. The vibrant colours bring life to this mythical creature and its surroundings. The intricate details of the tree branches and foliage create a sense of depth and mystery. As we gaze upon this artwork, we are reminded of the epic tale that unfolds within Wagner's masterpiece. Fafner guards the ring of power, which holds immense significance throughout "The Ring Cycle". This legendary enemy is portrayed here as both formidable and vulnerable in its slumber. The composition evokes a sense of awe and wonder as we contemplate the magnitude of this mythological creature. It serves as a testament to Wagner's genius as both composer and musician who brought these captivating stories to life through his operatic works. This remarkable print from Bridgeman Images allows us to delve into the rich tapestry of Viking lore while appreciating the artistic brilliance behind it all.
