Pogany's best known works consist of illustrations of classic myths and legends done in the Art Nouveau style. He also worked as an art director on several Hollywood films including Fashions of 1934 and Dames.<br/><br/>The publication of Pogány's Lohengrin was the final act in his trilogy of masterworks focused on Wagner's Germanic tales and one of the quintet that is considered his finest work. Pogány clearly approached the commission to illustrate Lohengrin as an opportunity to improve and extend techniques that he had developed through his preceding work particularly The Rubáiyat of Omar Khayyám The Rime of the Ancient Mariner Tannhäuser and Parsifal the other four books that immortalized his career as an illustrator. That commitment to ongoing innovation resulted in an incredible suite of illustrations including color lithographs monotone and marginal illustrations and the delightful tipped-in color plates produced with a four-color process included in Lohengrin. Themes of medieval chivalry erotic love and moral tests are illustrated in a lavish fashion by Pogány with an outstanding use of iconography form and color.'. London: G.G.

‎Autograph letter signed in full to the publicist Theodor Winkler pseud. Theodor Hell‎

‎2 pages of a bifolium; second leaf blank. Small folio 208 x 270 mm. Dated Paris May 7 1841. On stationery with Wagner's monogrammatic blindstamp to upper left corner. In German with translation.<br/><br/>A long densely-written letter regarding Wagner's proposed biography of Beethoven and mentioning his opera Rienzi.<br/><br/>Wagner who was trying to eke out a living in Paris at the time attempts to interest Winkler in his two-volume monograph on Beethoven based on the research of Wagner's friend Gottfried Engelbert Anders 1795-1866 a German-born librarian in Paris. Wagner declares his intention to supersede Anton Schindler's biography of Beethoven published in the previous year which he considers inadequate. He asks Winkler to recommend him to the publisher Christoph Arnold 1763-1847 and names his and Anders's requested fees to be paid in part as advances: <br/><br/>"Herr Anders found Schindler's book to be very poor compared to his own collection of communications on Beethoven . also every thoughtful and sensitive reader has expressed his opinion on Schindler's book that it falls short of meeting the demands of a true biography as it had been expected. Herr Anders was prompted to realize his long-cherished dream. As his position. leaves him hardly any time and he also confesses that an easy fluent realization will not come to him he has offered to leave me all his rich material and to discuss everything with me but to have the book itself written by me. Avoiding any fussy pedantic scholarly philistinism of citation our book shall be more like a great novel on an artist than like a dry enumeration of chronologically ordered dates and anecdotes."<br/><br/>In the final paragraph Wagner expresses his frustration about the long silence of the Dresden court opera regarding a possible production of his opera Rienzi:<br/><br/>"I have to confess to you that my opera Rienzi still means more to me than anything else. I am almost dying of my unruly lack of patience concerning the decision of the general direction. A negative decision.will cost me half a year during which I could have entered negotiations with a different theater."<br/><br/>Provenance<br/>From the noted autograph collection of Louis Koch.<br/><br/>Slightly creased; small professional repairs to edges; professionally guarded at inner edge of final leaf. WBV 169. Richard Wagner: Sämtliche Briefe I no. 149 pp. 481-86. Kinsky: Manuskripte Briefe Dokumente von Scarlatti bis Stravinsky: Katalog der Musikautographensammlung Louis Koch pp. 250-51 with facsimile of first page.<br/><br/>Theodor Winkler 1775-1856 better known under his pseudonym Theodor Hell was the editor-in-chief of the daily Dresdner Abend-Zeitung for which Wagner worked as a Paris correspondent. Enclosed with the present letter was Wagner's third "Pariser Bericht" dated May 5 1841. Winkler was active in many fields; trained as a lawyer he achieved fame as a poet editor arts administrator and stage director.<br/><br/>Wagner's biography of Beethoven did not in fact materialize. After Arnold declined the publishers Brockhaus and Cotta did the same. <br/><br/>Rienzi was first performed at the Dresden court opera on October 20 1842. unknown books‎
