Illustration from Siegfried and the Twilight of the Gods, 1924. Though gaily ye may laugh, in grief ye shall be left. For mocking maids, this ring ye ask shall never be yours. Siegfried comes upon the Rhine maidens, who seeing the ring on his hand ask for it back. He refuses. From Gotterdammerung (Twilight of the Gods). From a private collection.
