Mona Lisa: An Opera In Two Acts is a musical composition by the German composer Max Von Schillings. The opera was first performed in 1915 and is based on the famous painting by Leonardo da Vinci, the Mona Lisa. The plot of the opera revolves around the painting and its mysterious subject, exploring the emotions and motivations of the characters involved. The two acts of the opera are set in different time periods, with the first act taking place in Renaissance Italy and the second act in the 20th century. The music of the opera is lush and romantic, with soaring melodies and intricate harmonies. The libretto, written by the composer himself, is in German and features a cast of characters that includes Leonardo da Vinci, the Mona Lisa, and several other historical figures. Mona Lisa: An Opera In Two Acts is considered one of Schillings' most important works and is still performed today in opera houses around the world.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
