EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Daland looked at the stranger keenly" we are transported into a scene from J. Walker McSpadden's book, "The Stories of Wagner's Operas". The image, created by Ferdinand Leeke in 1905, beautifully captures a pivotal moment between two characters. Daland, portrayed with great intensity and curiosity, gazes intently at the mysterious stranger before him. As they stand on a rocky coastline overlooking the vast sea, one can almost feel the tension and intrigue that fills the air. Daland is engaged in conversation with the Dutchman, who proposes to marry his daughter Senta. The composition of this artwork is truly remarkable; it showcases a magnificent galleon ship anchored nearby as if symbolizing both adventure and danger. The coastal scene adds depth to the narrative, emphasizing how crucial this encounter is for all involved. Leeke's use of color lithography brings vibrancy to every element within the frame - from the golden treasures displayed by Daland to the rugged rocks lining Norway's shoreline.

"The Stories of Wagner's Operas" has captivated audiences for generations with its timeless tales set against majestic backdrops like these. This particular image perfectly encapsulates Richard Wagner's opera "The Flying Dutchman" where themes of love, fate, and redemption intertwine amidst maritime legends.
