Original 18 x 24 watercolor featuring a psychedelic illustration of the Gluck aria “Che faro senza Euridice from his opera “Orfeo ed Euridice”. Lyrics and translation read as follows:
“Che faro senza Euridice?
Dove andrò senza il mio ben?
Euridice, O Dio, risponde!
Io son pure il tuo fedele.
Euridice, Ah non m’avvanza
piu soccorso, più speranza,
ne dal mondo, ne dal cel.”
“What will I do without Eurydice?
Where will I go without my wonderful one?
Eurydice, O God, answer me!
I am entirely your loyal one.
Eurydice, ah, it doesn’t give me
any help, any hope,
in neither this world, nor in heaven.”
