EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Fafner: Hey! Come hither, And stop me this cranny" we are transported into the mythical world of Norse mythology. Created by the talented artist Arthur Rackham in 1910, this illustration is part of his work on "The Rhinegold and the Valkyrie". The scene depicted here showcases Fasolt, one of the giants from Wagner's opera "Der Ring des Nibelungen" who has fallen deeply in love with Freia, a goddess. However, despite his affection for her, Fasolt finds himself torn between his emotions and an irresistible offer – the Tarnhelm and gold. Rackham's intricate use of color lithography brings life to every detail in this artwork. The richness of hues creates a sense of depth and intensity that perfectly captures the essence of this dramatic moment. As we gaze upon this print from Fine Art Finder's collection, we can't help but be drawn into its enchanting narrative. It reminds us of the power music holds to transport us to other worlds and evoke strong emotions within us. This remarkable piece serves as a testament to Rackham's artistic brilliance and skillful storytelling ability. It invites viewers to immerse themselves in a world where gods, giants, mythological creatures collide – a true masterpiece that continues to captivate audiences even after more than a century since its creation.
