EDITORS COMMENTS
This print, titled "Siegfried kills Fafner" transports us into the mythical world of Wagner's opera, Siegfried and the Twilight of the Gods. Created in 1924 by the talented illustrator Arthur Rackham, this color lithograph showcases a pivotal moment in the story. In this scene, Mime leads Siegfried to Fafner's cave where a fierce battle awaits them. As Siegfried begins playing his horn, summoning Fafner from his slumber, tension fills the air. The mighty dragon emerges from its lair and engages in a deadly duel with our hero. With Nothung - Siegfried's legendary sword - clutched firmly in hand, he strikes a fatal blow against Fafner. The immense creature writhes in agony as its life force fades away. This climactic victory marks an important turning point for Siegfried on his quest to claim ultimate power through the Ring of Nibelung. Rackham's intricate detailing brings this epic confrontation to life. From every scale on Fafner's menacing body to each strand of hair on Siegfried's determined face, we are immersed in their struggle for dominance. As we gaze upon this artwork from Rackham's collection inspired by Richard Wagner’s masterpiece, we can't help but marvel at how it captures both the grandeur and intensity of Norse mythology. It serves as a testament not only to Rackham’s artistic prowess but also to Wagner’s enduring legacy that continues to captivate audiences worldwide.
