EDITORS COMMENTS
This image is a print from Mary Evans Picture Library, showcasing a scene from the historic opera "Weber's Oberon, or The Elves' King in the Forest," first performed in 1826. In this particular moment from Act One, Scene Six, the knight Huon (played by tenor) and his squire Sherasmin (bass) are depicted asleep in Oberon's bower. The tranquility of the scene is disrupted as Huon experiences a vision of Reiza, the beautiful daughter of the Caliph of Baghdad (soprano). Historically, this opera, composed by the German musician Carl Maria von Weber, is based on the medieval French romance "Huon de Bordeaux." The story revolves around Huon, a brave knight, who embarks on a quest to free the captive Reiza from the clutches of the Caliph. In this scene, Huon's dream serves as a prelude to the events that unfold in the subsequent acts, driving the narrative forward. The print, created by the renowned German painter and lithographer, Wilhelm Liebig, masterfully captures the essence of the opera. The detailed depiction of the dreamy, ethereal atmosphere in Oberon's bower, with its lush greenery and intricate floral designs, sets the stage for Huon's vision of Reiza. The use of light and shadow adds to the dreamlike quality of the image, further emphasizing the surreal nature of Huon's experience. The print also highlights the exquisite costumes and elaborate settings that were characteristic of the romantic operas of the 19th century. The rich colors and intricate patterns of Huon and Sherasmin's clothing, as well as the ornate details of the bower, transport the viewer to a world of enchantment and wonder. This print is not only a testament to the enduring appeal of Weber's opera but also a beautiful work of art in its own right. It offers a glimpse into the past, providing a window into the world of romantic opera and the captivating stories it told.
