Description:
|
|
Chagall designed 39 stage curtains and 121 costumes and masks for the Metropolitan Opera production of Mozart’s Die Zauberflöte (The Magic Flute; New York, 1966-1967). The sets are his most admired stage designs. Alan Rich, writing for the World Journal Tribune, described a scene in which art-besotted operagoers burst into "wild applause" with "each new stage picture," which caused some backlash from music lovers. Chagall’s production stayed in rotation until the 1981-1982 season. The costumes are stored in the Metropolitan Opera archive.
