EDITORS COMMENTS
This image showcases a scene from Richard Schumann's Lieder cycle, "Lotusbaume," composed between 1840 and 1841. The Lieder, or song cycle, is a set of twelve poems by German poet Adelbert von Chamisso, each accompanied by music. In this particular piece, Schumann sets the poem "Lotusbaume" by Chamisso, which describes the longing for a distant, idealized past. The photograph, dated circa 1921, captures a moment from the performance of this Lieder cycle. The image reveals a pianist, poised at the piano, with the sheet music of "Lotusbaume" spread out before them. The room is dimly lit, creating an intimate and introspective atmosphere. A single, focused spotlight illuminates the pianist, drawing the audience's attention to their artistry. The title "Lotusbaume" is inscribed at the bottom of the image, adding to the overall aesthetic and historical significance of the photograph. This image serves as a glimpse into the past, offering a window into the world of classical music and the performance of Schumann's Lieder. The romantic and nostalgic nature of the music is reflected in the image, making it a poignant and evocative piece of musical history.
