This 1913 artwork by Pyotr Konchalovsky is a set design for Mozart's opera *Don Giovanni*. The painting depicts a scene from the opera, showcasing two figures on horseback, one in red, the other in green, riding toward a fortified city. The use of bold colors, flat planes and simplified forms suggests an early 20th-century style, drawing on elements of both Expressionism and Art Deco. This dynamic design would have been a striking stage backdrop for a production of *Don Giovanni*.
