The captivating woodcut print titled "Die Nibelungen. Hagens Shield Request" transports viewers to the enchanting world of Germanic mythology and folklore. Created by Alfred Rethel between 1840 and 1841, this artwork is a testament to his mastery in graphic arts. The print depicts a pivotal moment from Richard Wagner's epic opera cycle, "Ring des Nibelungen". The scene showcases Hagen, one of the central characters, requesting a shield from Dómaldr (also known as Domalde), an important figure in Norse mythology. As part of the Nazarene movement that sought inspiration from traditional themes and allegory, Rethel beautifully captures the essence of pagan beliefs intertwined with literature and theatre. With intricate details and rich symbolism, this woodcut immerses us into the Viking Age sagas where gods like Odin (Wotan) reign supreme alongside legendary heroes such as Rudiger. The print not only pays homage to Wagner's masterful storytelling but also serves as a visual tribute to Germanic heritage. Currently held in a private collection, this rare piece offers art enthusiasts an opportunity to delve into ancient mythological realms while appreciating Rethel's artistic finesse. Its presence evokes curiosity about how ballets or operas based on these sagas would have unfolded during its time. This remarkable woodcut stands as a timeless reminder of our fascination with legends passed down through generations—a testament to their enduring power over our imaginations.
