Night, from On Death, Part I, Opus XI (Nacht, Vom Tode, Erster Teil, Opus XI), 1889
Night, from On Death, Part I, Opus XI (Nacht, Vom Tode, Erster Teil, Opus XI), 1889. In On Death, Part One, a series of ten etchings, the Symbolist Klinger envisioned the ephemeral nature of life and the suddenness of death, themes that prompted one contemporary critic to call the portfolio a modern " Dance of Death." In Night, the first in the series, a man sits on a bench in an enclosed garden. A moonbeam breaks through the clouds over the sea, and on the path to the right is a lily with a fluttering butterfly. The landscape seems an extension of the figures melancholy thoughts, a landscape of the mind

EDITORS COMMENTS
The print titled "Night, from On Death, Part I, Opus XI (Nacht, Vom Tode, Erster Teil, Opus XI), 1889" captures the profound essence of life's transience and the suddenness of death. Created by Max Klinger as part of his Symbolist series on mortality, this image evokes a contemporary critic's description of a modern "Dance of Death". In this first etching from the series, we witness a solitary figure sitting on a bench within an enclosed garden. The man appears lost in melancholic contemplation as he gazes into the distance. A moonbeam pierces through dark clouds above the sea while a lily with a delicate butterfly flutters nearby on the path to his right. The landscape surrounding him seems to mirror his somber thoughts—a manifestation of his inner world. Through intricate details and masterful technique in etching and aquatinting, Klinger invites us to delve into our own reflections on mortality. This late 19th-century artwork by Max Klinger is an example of German Symbolism at its finest. Preserved by The Cleveland Museum of Art and beautifully reproduced by Heritage Art/Heritage Images for all to appreciate its depth and beauty.
