EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a scene from Mozart's timeless opera, Don Giovanni, first performed in Prague in 1787. The opera, composed by the renowned Austrian musician Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart, tells the story of Don Giovanni's relentless pursuit of pleasure and his encounters with various women. In this particular moment frozen in time, we witness Don Giovanni attempting to seduce Zerlina, a charming country girl. As the music fills the air, Don Giovanni sings passionately to Zerlina while extending his hand towards her. His smooth words and enchanting melody echo through the theatre as he tries to win her over. The libretto for this masterpiece was skillfully crafted by Lorenzo Da Ponte based on Moliere's play from 1665 called "Don Juan or the Stone Banquet". This photograph is taken from May Byron's book titled "A Day With Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart" published in London around 1914. It beautifully captures not only the essence of this iconic scene but also showcases Mozart's genius as a composer. The image transports us back to an era where music and theater intertwined to create unforgettable moments like these. It serves as a reminder of how art can transcend time and continue to captivate audiences centuries later.
