Postcard The Fire Magician Brünnhilde (M6615)

Catalog number: M6615

Postcard Der Feuerzauber (Wagner, Brünnhilde) – old color motif

Older postcard with a motif from German mythology or opera - a scene called Der Feuerzauber (The Fire Magic), which is a reference to a scene from Richard Wagner's famous opera The Ring of the Nibelung. The postcard is richly colored and depicts a woman in flames, probably the Valkyrie Brünnhilde. On the back you will find German text: Herauf, wabernde Lohe, Umlodre mir feurig den Fels! The postcard was probably issued around the beginning of the 20th century. The condition corresponds to its age - small stains in places, corners slightly worn. An unusual piece for collectors of motifs from mythology, opera or German culture.
