EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases "The Hall of Stars in the Palace of the Queen of the Night" a remarkable set design created by Karl Friedrich Thiele for Act 1, Scene 6 of Mozart's opera, The Magic Flute. Crafted between 1847 and 1849, this stunning aquatint print is a testament to Thiele's artistic genius. The image transports us into a celestial realm where astronomy meets fantasy. Against a backdrop of swirling clouds and an enchanting crescent moon, we are immersed in a world filled with vibrant colors and intricate details. Hand-colored and hand-tinted with meticulous care, every element comes alive under the skillful touch of Thiele. As our eyes wander through this ethereal space, we are captivated by the mesmerizing array of stars that adorn the hall. Each star seems to twinkle with its own unique brilliance as if inviting us to explore hidden wonders within the solar system. Thiele's masterful use of lighting adds depth and drama to this stage set. It creates an otherworldly ambiance that perfectly complements Mozart's magical composition. This visual spectacle not only enhances our experience as spectators but also serves as a testament to the rich heritage of German opera. Displayed at The Metropolitan Museum of Art, this extraordinary piece stands as a testament to Thiele's contribution to both art and theater history. Through his creation, he invites us on an enchanting journey beyond earthly boundaries into realms where imagination reigns supreme.
