"Tamino Plays the Magic Flute to Ward Off the Wild Beasts, Act I Scene XV, from The Magic Flute by Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart 1756-91, c.1793" is a notable artwork by the Austrian artist duo Joseph and Peter Schaffer. The painting captures a pivotal moment from Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart's renowned opera "The Magic Flute" (Die Zauberflöte), which premiered in Vienna in 1791, just months before the composer's death. The opera, a Singspiel—a form that includes both singing and spoken dialogue—was an immediate success and remains a staple of the operatic repertoire today.

The Schaffer brothers' painting, dated circa 1793, depicts the heroic character Prince Tamino as he uses a magical flute given to him by the Queen of the Night to charm and pacify a menagerie of wild animals. This scene occurs in Act I, Scene XV of the opera, where Tamino's virtuous nature is demonstrated through the enchanting power of music, reflecting the Enlightenment ideals of the time.

In the artwork, the Schaffers illustrate the transformative effect of Tamino's flute-playing, with various creatures of the forest drawn to him in a state of tranquility. The scene is emblematic of the opera's themes of love, enlightenment, and the struggle between good and evil. The painting is a testament to the Schaffers' ability to translate the dramatic and musical essence of Mozart's work into a visual form, capturing the ethereal quality of the scene with a blend of realism and romanticism.

As a historical piece, "Tamino Plays the Magic Flute to Ward Off the Wild Beasts" not only serves as a visual representation of one of Mozart's most famous operatic scenes but also provides insight into the reception and interpretation of "The Magic Flute" in the years following its premiere. The painting is an important cultural artifact that reflects the enduring impact of Mozart's music and the broader artistic movements of the late 18th century.
