Hungary - Wagner opera Tannhauser
This stamp from Hungary depicts a scene from the opera Tannhauser by Richard Wagner.
Tannhauser is an opera in three acts. The opera is based on the two German legends of Tannhäuser and the song contest at Wartburg.
The story centers on the struggle between sacred and profane love, and
redemption through love (a theme running through almost all Wagner's
mature work).
