Le Nozze di Figaro Archival Print by Mark Podwal
Mark Podwal’s artwork shows the four protagonists of Mozart’s opera—each a captive of a heart-shaped music staff. The composer, portrayed as a cupid, shoots flowers at the characters.
Evoking the opera's comic romance, the musical notes are represented as flowers. A backdrop of hearts further visualizes the storyline.

History
WOLFGANG AMADEUS MOZART
Le Nozze di Figaro
World premiere: Burgtheater, Vienna, 1786. A profoundly humane comedy, Le Nozze di Figaro is a remarkable marriage of Mozart’s music at the height of his genius and one of the best librettos ever set. In adapting a play that caused a scandal with its revolutionary take on 18th-century society, librettist Lorenzo Da Ponte focused less on the original topical references and more on the timeless issues embedded in the frothy drawing-room comedy.
