Summary |
Photoprint of a watercolor of Leadville, Colorado's Tabor Opera House scenery. The painting includes a formal garden scene used with Metroplitan Opera Company productions, a balustrade, foliage and potted urns, a fountain, tall trees, and a castle across the water in the background. In December, 1933, a group of students, a former Tabor stage manager, and professors set up original canvas flats and drops to document and photograph, while Wolle sketched each set and made color notes which were developed into large watercolor paintings. |
