Lohengrin's Transformation: A Moment of Grace from Wagner's Opera This evocative image captures a pivotal moment from Richard Wagner's legendary opera, Lohengrin. In the scene depicted, the titular character, Lohengrin, played by tenor Max Schorr, transforms the swan that pulls his boat into Lohengrin's brother, Godfrey, portrayed by bass-baritone Hermann Winkelheiser. This transformation marks a significant turning point in the opera's complex narrative. Set in the medieval kingdom of Brabant, Lohengrin, a knight of the Grail, arrives to help Princess Elsa (soprano Lilli Lehmann) prove her innocence in the death of her brother. He arrives by boat, pulled by a swan, and vows to defend her honor. However, Elsa is forbidden from seeing or knowing the identity of her savior. When Elsa's brother, Godfrey, accuses Lohengrin of being a sorcerer, Lohengrin, in a moment of divine intervention, transforms the swan into Godfrey to prove his innocence. This historical print from Mary Evans Picture Library, dated 1850, offers a glimpse into the rich theatrical history of Wagner's opera. The image captures the moment of transformation, with Lohengrin reaching out to touch Godfrey's hand as he emerges from the swan's form. The dove, a symbol of the Holy Spirit, hovers above, underscoring the divine nature of the event. The ornate costumes and elaborate set design transport us back to the opera's 19th-century origins, offering a window into the world of music history.
