EDITORS COMMENTS
Freia, the fair one, stands gracefully amidst her enchanting garden, as captured in this illustration from The Rhinegold and the Valkyrie. Created by the talented Arthur Rackham in 1910, this colour lithograph showcases Freia's ethereal beauty and mythical presence. In this scene, we witness Freia tending to her precious golden apple tree, a symbol of abundance and immortality. With utmost care, she delicately plucks ripe apples into a woven basket while her feline companion curiously observes nearby. Her nakedness represents purity and vulnerability as she embraces her role as the goddess of love and fertility. This artwork is part of The Stapleton Collection and offers us a glimpse into Norse mythology within Richard Wagner's epic opera cycle, Der Ring des Nibelungen. As we admire Rackham's intricate botanical details that adorn the composition, we are reminded of the harmonious relationship between nature and myth. The fusion of fantasy elements with musical inspiration makes this print an exquisite addition to any art collection or music lover's sanctuary. Let it transport you to a world where gods reign supreme and ancient legends come alive through mesmerizing illustrations like these.
