This print titled "Die Nibelungen. How the Queen Gave Orders to Burn Down the Hall, 1840-1841" is a remarkable creation by Alfred Rethel. The artwork belongs to a private collection and was produced during the years 1840-1841. Rethel, an influential figure of the Nazarene movement, skillfully combines allegory and literature in this piece. The image depicts a scene from Richard Wagner's epic opera cycle "Ring des Nibelungen" based on Germanic mythology and Norse sagas. It showcases a dramatic moment where the queen issues orders to set fire to the hall, enveloping it in chaos and destruction. Rethel's woodcut technique adds depth and texture to this traditional folklore-inspired artwork. The composition beautifully captures elements of pagan symbolism intertwined with Viking age aesthetics, transporting viewers into a mythical world filled with gods like Odin (Wotan) and heroes such as Domalde (Dómaldr). This print serves as both an homage to Wagner's monumental work and a testament to Rethel's artistic prowess.
