Scène uit Aschenbrödel van Johann Strauss 1900 - 1904

"Scène uit Aschenbrödel van Johann Strauss" is a 1900-1904 artwork by Fritz Dinger, depicting a scene from the opera "Aschenbrödel" by Johann Strauss. The artwork, currently housed in the Rijksmuseum, showcases a young woman surrounded by pigeons in a rustic setting. The woman's melancholic expression and the simple yet detailed depiction of the scene evoke a sense of quiet contemplation and rural life, common themes in Dinger's work. The use of chiaroscuro and a focus on realism add depth and emotional resonance to the image.
