Painting Description
"Echo and Narcissus" by Paul Milliet is an opera in three acts, with music composed by Gabriel Fauré. The libretto, written by Milliet, draws upon the classical myth of Echo and Narcissus as recounted in Ovid's "Metamorphoses." This opera, a blend of romanticism and symbolism, explores themes of love, rejection, and transformation, deeply rooted in the rich soil of Greek mythology. The story revolves around the beautiful youth Narcissus, who falls in love with his own reflection, and Echo, a nymph cursed to only repeat the words of others, who pines unrequitedly for Narcissus. Fauré's composition, known for its lyrical beauty and emotional depth, complements Milliet's libretto, creating a poignant and evocative operatic experience. The opera premiered in the early 20th century, contributing to the era's fascination with mythological subjects, and remains a notable work for its innovative use of the myth to explore complex human emotions and the consequences of vanity and unrequited love. Through "Echo and Narcissus," Milliet and Fauré offer a timeless reflection on the nature of self-love and the longing for connection, themes that continue to resonate with audiences today.
