EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases the exquisite set design for Mozart's timeless opera, "The Magic Flute" dating back to 1863. The enchanting production, first performed in Vienna in 1791, was a collaboration between Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart and librettist Emanuel Schikaneder. Known for its subtle references to Freemasonry, this opera has captivated audiences throughout the centuries. In this particular rendition at the Paris Opera, the intricate stage design transports viewers into a world of wonder and intrigue. The vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail bring each scene to life, immersing spectators in an unforgettable visual experience. As we delve into the plot of "The Magic Flute" some speculate that Queen of the Night's character draws inspiration from Empress Maria Theresa herself. This adds another layer of historical significance to an already remarkable performance.
