"Angel of Music"—the haunting endearment whispered between Christine Daaé and the Phantom—binds them in a spell of mystery and longing. Suspended above the stage like specters of fate, they cast their gaze over the world unfolding beneath them: the ardent Viscount de Chagny reaching for love he cannot grasp; Carlotta, the imperious prima donna, lifted by her swarm of flatterers yet deaf to her own fading brilliance; the blundering theatre managers scrambling in chaos; faithful Meg, ever in Christine’s shadow; and the breathless audience below, draped in finery, spellbound by illusion, unaware of the darkness that coils behind the curtain, but awaiting a night at the opera. Polymer clay on preserved wood. Approximately 9” x 8” x 10”.
