EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures the extraordinary moment when renowned singer Emma Destinn fearlessly performed inside a cage of 14 majestic lions in Berlin. The vibrant color lithograph, created by Italian illustrator Achille Beltrame, showcases the audacious scene from a film that left audiences in awe during its release in November 1913. Emma Destinn's mesmerizing voice reverberates through the bars of her unusual stage as she fearlessly serenades both the crowd and her feline companions. This daring act symbolizes her unwavering passion for music and her willingness to push boundaries to captivate audiences worldwide. The image provides a glimpse into early 20th-century entertainment culture, where singers like Emma Destinn were willing to take risks and experiment with unconventional performances. As pianos stand nearby, ready to accompany her melodic tunes, it becomes evident that this spectacle was meticulously orchestrated to create an unforgettable experience for all who witnessed it. Beltrame's detailed illustration transports us back in time, allowing us to witness this remarkable moment firsthand. It serves as a testament not only to Emma Destinn's incredible talent but also to the innovative spirit of artists and performers who continuously strive to challenge norms and leave their mark on history. This rare gem from Bridgeman Images reminds us of the power of artistry and its ability to transcend boundaries – even those between humans and wild beasts – leaving an indelible impression on our collective memory.
