Description

Curtain Design for The Love For Three Oranges (1981)

12" x 21"

Pencil

Best known for his childrens books , like Where the Wild Things Are, Maurice Sendak also designed for operas. This is a curtain design (Act 3, Scene 2) for the opera The Love For Three Oranges by Sergei Prokofiev; produced by the Glyndebourne Opera, Sussex, England in 1982.

I love the whimsy of this piece ... reminds of playing Joust back in the early 80's.

Very nice, a great artist for sure. Yep I remember playing Joust, I got pretty good at it too. Remember Defender and Stargate?
