Date: 1888-91
Based on Wagner's Götterdämmerung, Elliott Daingerfield wrote in 1918 that Ryder told him:
I had been to hear the opera and went home about twelve o'clock and began this picture. I worked for forty-eight hours without sleep or food, and the picture was the result.
The depth of pigment, however, indicates that he worked further on it. Exhibited in 1891.
