Henri Fantin-Latour's 1886 lithograph, "Wolfram d'Eschenbach ziet Elisabeth en de avondster," depicts a scene from the medieval romance "Parzival" by Wolfram von Eschenbach. The artwork portrays Wolfram d'Eschenbach gazing at a vision of Elisabeth, a figure illuminated by the evening star. This piece is a beautiful example of Fantin-Latour's mastery of black and white, with its delicate shading and evocative composition that captures the mystical nature of the story. This print is currently housed in the Rijksmuseum in Amsterdam.
