Walhalls Zinnen über allem!!

Büchergilde Editions have created a true masterpiece, with a four-part illustrated book on Richard Wagner's magnum opus,

"The Ring of the Nibelung"!

The story of the Nibelung epic is told on four expressionistic sheets, drawn and one almost might say staged by Martin Stark, with an additional bonus picture sheet containing the family tree of all protagonists. On the reverse pages the outline of the plot is described and the complete libretto of the „Vorabend“ and the three following days is also printed on the sheets, including the complete orchestral version.

This book guild picture sheet - extra - is unique and has been designed and drawn with great attention to detail, a real enrichment for all those who are familiar with the Ring of the Nibelung and who may discover new things while studying it. This work is also suitable for beginners in its extensive subject matter with all the kinship ties and crossovers between the „Licht- und Schwarzalben“

A fireball of expressionism and passion surges towards us in this musical epic of love, revenge and passion.

Vollendet, das ewige Werk!!

Available (in German only) at Edition Büchergilde, ISBN 978-3-86406-102-8 Frankfurt/Main 2020.
