Pogany's best known works consist of illustrations of classic myths and legends done in the Art Nouveau style. He also worked as an art director on several Hollywood films including Fashions of 1934 and Dames.<br/><br/>The publication of Pogány's Tannhauser was the first act in his trilogy of masterworks focused on Wagner's Germanic tales and one of the quintet that is considered his finest work. Pogány clearly approached the commission to improve and extend techniques that he had developed through his preceding work particularly The Rubáiyat of Omar Khayyám and The Rime of the Ancient Mariner. Along with Tannhäuser Parsifal and Lohengrin these five books immortalized his career as an llustrator. That commitment to ongoing innovation resulted in an incredible suite of illustrations including color lithographs monotone and marginal illustrations and the delightful tipped-in color plates produced in four-color process included in Tannhauser. Themes of medieval chivalry erotic love and moral tests are illustrated in a lavish fashion by Pogány with an outstanding use of iconography form and colour. London: G.G.

Slightly foxed and browned. First Edition. Fuld p. 465. Deathridge Geck and Voss WWV p. 402. Klein p. 51. The general title and half title are common to the full scores of all four Ring operas.<br/><br/>Götterdämmerung is the fourth opera in the Ring cycle. Excerpts were first performed in a concert at the Musikverein in Vienna on March 25 1875; the entire work was first performed as part of the Ring cycle at Bayreuth on August 17 1876. <br/><br/>"The final opera of the Ring. provides an appropriately weighty conclusion to the epic cycle. 26 years elapsed from the time Wagner made his first prose draft for the work then called Siegfrieds Tod to the completion of the full score with inevitable consequences in terms of stylistic unity. Retrogressive elements of grand opera exist side by side with motivic integration representative of Wagner's most mature style. And yet the stylistic integrity of Götterdämmerung is scarcely compromised so skilfully are the disparate elements welded together and so intense the dramaturgical conviction. The resources and stamina demanded by the work from both singers and orchestra combined with its sheer length and theatrical potency make it one of the most daunting yet rewarding undertakings in the operatic repertory."
