EDITORS COMMENTS
This image from the Mary Evans Picture Library transports us back to the historic world premiere of Carl Maria von Weber's opera "Der Freischütz" (The Marksman) at the Berlin National Theatre in 1821. In this dramatic scene from Act Three, Scene Five, titled "The Shooting Contest," Max, portrayed by tenor Liebig5, is participating in a contest to prove his love for his fiancée Agathe. However, things take an unexpected turn as the magic bullet, believed to be guided by a dove, is actually manipulated by the devil, Caspar, played by bass Weber. The tension in the scene is palpable as Max, with unwavering determination, aims at the dove perched on a branch, oblivious to the devil's deception. The other hunters, including the forester, are seen in the background, their eyes fixed on the contest, unaware of the supernatural intervention. The devil, disguised as a fellow hunter, smirks in the shadows, having successfully guided the bullet towards Caspar, who is hidden behind a tree. This moment, filled with suspense and intrigue, is a testament to the rich historical legacy of German Romantic opera. The opera's blend of folklore, supernatural elements, and passionate love story continues to captivate audiences worldwide, making "Der Freischütz" a must-see for opera enthusiasts and history buffs alike. The detailed costumes, authentic settings, and expressive facial expressions of the performers in this photograph offer a glimpse into the theatrical world of the early 19th century. This image not only provides a visual representation of the opera's iconic scene but also serves as a reminder of the enduring appeal of Weber's masterpiece.
