EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print titled "Dr Faustus conjuring up Mephistopheles" we are transported into the mystical world of literature, music, and German folklore. The image depicts a pivotal moment from Christopher Marlowe's and Johann Wolfgang von Goethe's renowned dramas centered around Dr Faustus. As the central figure in these tales, Dr Faustus is seen here summoning the enigmatic Mephistopheles through his profound knowledge of necromancy. The composition beautifully captures the essence of this legendary character who was inspired by the real-life German wandering conjuror and astrologer, Johann Faust. With an air of both fascination and trepidation surrounding him, Dr Faustus stands at the crossroads between forbidden knowledge and supernatural powers. This evocative photograph not only celebrates the literary heritage but also highlights how Goethe's version served as inspiration for Charles Gounod's opera adaptation. It serves as a testament to how art forms intertwine across different mediums to create enduring masterpieces that transcend time. Through its striking visual representation, this print invites us to delve into a realm where human desires clash with moral boundaries while showcasing Universal Images Group (UIG)'s commitment to preserving cultural history through their extensive archive collection.
