EDITORS COMMENTS
The print of "Ophelia, 1918 (litho)" by Hans Freese captures a hauntingly beautiful scene that evokes a sense of despair and madness. Set in the German countryside, the black and white lithograph depicts a lone woman standing at the edge of a serene lake. The landscape exudes a feeling of hopelessness as the woman's emotions seem to mirror her surroundings. The image draws inspiration from Shakespeare's tragic character Ophelia, known for her descent into madness in Hamlet. The play theatre reference adds depth to the artwork, highlighting themes of femininity and hysteria. Freese's mastery is evident in his attention to detail and use of light and shadow. The engraving technique employed creates an ethereal quality that enhances the overall mood of the piece. This early twentieth-century work showcases Freese's talent as well as his ability to capture raw human emotion through art. It serves as a poignant reminder of the complexities within our own minds and society. Displayed at Dallas Museum of Art in Texas, USA, this anonymous gift in memory of Baroness Luise Gutmann Gattin holds historical significance while also resonating with contemporary audiences. It stands as a testament to how art can transcend time and evoke powerful emotions within its viewers.
