Poster design for Der Freischütz opera by Carla Maria von Weber at La Scala, centered on the exquisite costume design of Madame Bisovsky. The poster highlights the intricacy and elegance of the costume by juxtaposing it with an abrasive, industrial-style metal deathmask, creating a striking contrast that captures the duality of beauty and mortality—a theme resonant within the opera’s narrative.
The design emphasizes the meticulous craftsmanship of the costume, highlighting its delicate textures and ornate details, while the raw, imposing deathmask adds a layer of tension and intrigue. This interplay of refinement and menace serves as a visual metaphor for the opera's themes of love, fate, and the supernatural.
