EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the Frontispiece for Apollos Feast, an engraving created by the English School in the 18th century. The artwork is part of a private collection and depicts a scene from Apollos Feast or The Harmony of the Opera Stage, a collection of popular songs from Mr. Handel's latest operas. In this intricate composition, we see Apollo himself playing the harp surrounded by cherubs and cupids. The baroque style adds grandeur to the image, with every detail meticulously crafted to create a sense of harmony and beauty. The page features musical instruments, symbolizing Handel's mastery as a composer and conductor. The titlepage serves as an invitation into this world of music, promising a well-chosen anthology filled with favorite and celebrated songs. As we gaze at this print, we can almost hear the melodies that once resonated through opera houses during Handel's time. This print captures not only an exquisite piece of art but also pays homage to George Frederic Handel - a German-born composer who left an indelible mark on music history. It reminds us of his genius and enduring legacy that continues to inspire musicians today. Bridgeman Images has beautifully preserved this historic artwork for all to appreciate its beauty and significance.
