The narrative follows the tragic and ironic journey of a wealthy heir, who descends into debt, madness, and ultimately death, inspired by a 1947 exhibition of William Hogarth's prints. The libretto by W. H. Auden and C. Kallman weaves together elements from classical pastoral, the Faust legend, fairy tales, circus, and biblical stories. Igor Stravinsky's music brilliantly integrates influences from the operatic canon, creating a unique work that transcends parody or imitation. This opera remains a significant piece of the 20th-century repertoire.
