Tannhauser is an opera by Richard Wagner inspired by the German legend of the medieval poet Tannhauser and the Warturg Song Contest. Written in three acts the opera tells of the struggle between love in its many forms. This particular edition contains a poetic interpretation of the opera's original libretto by T. W. Rolleston. Born in Hungary in 1882 Willy Pogany was a prolific illustrator active in Europe and the United States throughout the first half of the 20th century. After attending art school he travelled through Munich and Paris finally finding success in London following the demand for illustrators sparked by Arthur Rackham's publication of Rip Van Winkle in 1906 which was widely popular. Pogany is most known for the four illustrated books he published between 1910 and 1913 The Rime of the Ancient Mariner 1910 Tannhauser 1911 Parsifal 1912 and Lohengrin 1913. Hard Cover. Fine.

His reputation as a muralist painter and illustrator was well established in Paris London and Munich before arriving in the United States in 1915 at the age of thirty-three. Skilled in an unusually wide range of media he had won gold medals at exhibitions in Budapest Leipzig and at the Panama Pacific International Exhibition.<br/><br/>"Among Pogány's many murals are those for the Heckscher Children's Theatre in New York City and the Niagara Falls Power Station. As a painter he did portraits of famous people in all walks of life. An expert on scenery design and lighting effects Pogány also designed sets for ballets and operas including "Le Coq d'Or" and for many films such as Modern Times for Charlie Chaplin as well as animated cartoons based on his children's books.<br/><br/>"Among his other artistic endeavors Pogány was an accomplished book illustrator. It was this phase of his career especially as an illustrator of children's books which gives this collection special relevance for Special Collections & University Archives at the University of Oregon Libraries. Pogány designed and illustrated more than 150 books. His illustrations include those for the Rubaiyat and the Sonnets from the Portuguese The Song Celestial The Adventures of Odysseus Gulliver's Travels and many others both classic and original.<br/><br/>"Working tirelessly right up until the end Willy Pogány died in 1955" University of Oregon Guide to the Willy A.

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.
