EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving takes us back to the 19th century, where we find ourselves in the company of two legendary composers - Hector Berlioz and Richard Wagner. The French School has beautifully captured this moment, showcasing their satirical genius through caricatures. In this whimsical portrayal, we see Berlioz and Wagner engrossed in reading a newspaper together. With a touch of humor and wit, the artists have depicted them as comically dozing off while perusing the news. It's as if they are so absorbed in their own musical worlds that even sleep cannot escape them. The image speaks volumes about the world of music during that era. These renowned musicians were not only masters of composition but also avid readers who closely followed reviews and news articles related to their craft. This engraving captures both their dedication to their art form and their lightheartedness amidst it all. Berlioz, known for his innovative orchestration techniques, is portrayed with his characteristic curly hair and dreamy expression. Meanwhile, Wagner's distinctive features are highlighted with great attention to detail. As we delve into this artwork by Giancarlo Costa, we can't help but appreciate how it encapsulates the essence of these two influential figures in classical music history. Their legacy lives on through compositions that continue to inspire generations today.
