Siegfried and the Twilight of the Gods

WAGNER, Richard / RACKHAM, Arthur

RACKHAM, Arthur Siegfried and the Twilight of the Gods

Heinemann, 1911.

First edition illustrated by Rackham. 4to. Tan buckram with gilt lettering and illustration to cover and spine, top edge brown. Pictorial endpapers. Thirty mounted colour plates and numerous small line drawings in the text, two small abrasions to the plate on page 172. A very good copy. Previous owner's book plate on the paste down end paper, heavily foxed to the front blank and half title, and gift inscription to the previous owner.

Wagner's epic tale of dwarves, Gods and heroes allowed Rackham the chance to draw on the German art which inspired him so greatly. His paintings for these volumes are often considered amongst his best work.

Riall, p. 109
