Aubrey Beardsley "Siegfried" circa 1900 from Wagner's opera

Sale price¥275,000

This work is one of Aubrey Beardsley's masterpieces, inspired by Siegfried, the third work in Richard Wagner's four-part opera Der Ring des Nibelungen.

In the centre of the painting, the hero Siegfried is depicted in a majestic pose after slaying the giant Fafner, who had disguised himself as a dragon.
A fallen dragon lies at his feet and he holds a sword, reminiscent of a hero from ancient mythology.

The background features a fantastical landscape and a motif resembling crumbling architectural decoration, while flowers blooming on the water's surface and swirling designs quietly spread out below. Beardsley's characteristically precise and elegant lines maintain a balance between tranquil white space and decorative elements, drawing the eye into the world of the story.

This work was originally created for the art magazine The Studio, and after Beardsley's early death in 1898, it was included in a memorial collection by John Lane Publishing, the same publishers that had published Beardsley's masterpiece Salome.
This is an original antique print produced at that time.
