EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from Richard Wagner's opera, "The Valkyrie" specifically the iconic "Ride of the Valkyries". Created by Delitz, this artwork showcases Brunhilde, one of the valkyries, carrying a wounded warrior to Valhalla. The image exudes drama and intensity as it depicts the aftermath of a fierce battle. In this 19th-century Scandinavian setting, we witness Brunhilde clad in her striking dress and helmet, symbolizing her role as a female warrior. With spear in hand and mounted on her majestic horse, she soars through the air with determination. The wounded warrior she carries represents both death and dying amidst warfare. Delitz's monochrome portrayal adds an element of timelessness to this powerful moment from Norse mythology. It transports us back to an era when valkyries were believed to choose who would live or die in battle. As we gaze upon this print, we are reminded of Richard Wagner's genius in bringing these mythical characters to life through his operatic masterpiece. This artwork serves as a testament not only to Wagner's talent but also to Delitz's skillful interpretation. Whether you are an opera enthusiast or simply captivated by tales of bravery and mythology, this stunning print is sure to transport you into the world of valkyries and their epic journey towards Valhalla.
