Rogelio de Egusquiza y Barrena (20 July 1845-10 February 1915) Spanish painter,-La muerta Tristan and Isoldi
Αριάδνη στη Νάξο
Με το καράβι του Θησέα
σ’ αφήσαμε στη Νάξο γυμνή,
μ’ ένα στα πόδια σου
θαλασσινό σκουτί.
Σε ποιες σπηλιές εκρύφθηκες
και πώς να σε φωνάξω,
κουστάρω κι’

It does bear the question of what counts as "love" when potions and magic are involved. In Aphrodite's case, is her interference a curse (Medea, Psyche, Helen of Troy) or a gift? Queen Isolde's gift to her daughter, Princess Isolde begs the same question.

But of a beautiful unheard of kind,
That is not in the world.'

Of the other “Wagnerian” paintings Egusquiza produced, another noteworthy pair is about Tristan und Isolde; the first (La Vida) depicts their passionate embrace from act II while the second (La Muerte) depicts the “Liebestod”.
