About Mime, howling. Ohé! Ohé!

The artwork, titled “Mime, howling. Ohé! Ohé!”, was created by Arthur Rackham. It belongs to the Art Nouveau (Modern) movement and is part of the illustration genre. This particular piece is included in the series “The Rhinegold & The Valkyrie.”

In the artwork, a dramatic and somber scene is depicted in muted, earthy tones, characteristic of Arthur Rackham’s distinct style. Two figures appear to be placed in a rocky, cavernous environment. One figure, seemingly more dominant and perhaps in anger or distress, looms over the other, who is cowering with a resigned posture. Above them, twisted and gnarled tree branches form a haunting backdrop, adding to the eerie and tense atmosphere of the scene. The intricate lines and detailed textures bring depth and emotion to the illustration, highlighting Rackham’s mastery in conveying narrative through visual art.
