A科普 (科普 means popular science explanation): This painting is titled Tannhäuser in Venusberg, inspired by the opera Tannhäuser created by German composer Richard Wagner in 1845.

Synopsis:
The story takes place in the early 13th century in Germany, in the valley of Thuringia, near Eisenach. The lords ruling the area around Wartburg were patrons of music, poetry, and art, and they often held minstrel competitions at Wartburg Castle.

Across the Thuringian valley stood Venusberg (Venusberg), where the god of spring, Holda, was said to reside. Over time, Holda was associated with the pagan goddess of love, Venus. Her cave was inhabited by alluring sirens and nymphs. The goddess of love would lure knights-minstrels from Wartburg into her lair, captivating them with her beauty.

Heinrich von Ofterdingen, the male protagonist Tannhäuser, had left the lords court a year earlier due to disagreements with other knights in Thuringia. Since then, he has been voluntarily imprisoned in Venusbergs cave due to his love for Venus.

Act I
Inside Venusbergs cave, rose-colored light illuminates nymphs and sirens, as well as beautiful couples enjoying blissful moments. They are dancing and reveling, detached from the worries and sorrows of the mortal world. Tannhäuser is immersed in a world of sensual pleasure. The sound of singing and the sight of dancing create a harmonious atmosphere.

After the revelry, Tannhäusers desires are satisfied, but within this dark cave, he begins to long for spring, church bells, and freedom. He picks up his harp and sings a passionate love song, paying homage to the goddess and expressing his desire to leave Venusberg. He no longer wants to be a slave to the goddess of love, repeatedly pleading for freedom. This angers Venus, who curses Tannhäuser, condemning him to never find redemption. Tannhäuser sings, The Virgin Mary will forgive me! The evil curse of the goddess is broken, and Venus and the cave disappear. Tannhäuser escapes.

Tannhäuser finds himself in a beautiful valley. To his right lies the path back to Wartburg Castle. He sees a statue of the Virgin Mary before him, and he hears the sound of young shepherds playing their flutes and singing praises to the valley. A group of pilgrims pass by, and the shepherd stops singing.

The Thuringian lords, accompanied by their hunting party, pass by. The minstrels recognize Tannhäuser praying and recall past grievances, asking where he has been. Tannhäuser gives vague answers. They urge him to rejoin them, but he refuses. Then, Elizabeth, the lords niece and Tannhäusers beloved, is mentioned. The minstrels say that since his departure, Elizabeth has lost interest in music, and they hope that Tannhäusers return will awaken her vibrant soul. Tannhäuser is deeply moved and asks them to take him to her.

Elizabeth appears joyfully, singing in the hall: Since Tannhäuser left, I have been surrounded by sadness. I long to hear his voice again, to awaken me from this sorrowful dream. Tannhäuser is brought before her.

Rushing to Elizabeths feet, Tannhäuser exclaims, Princess! Elizabeth asks him confusedly, Where have you been? Tannhäuser avoids giving a detailed explanation. The princess greets him joyfully and praises the miracle of his return. They sing a duet together, celebrating this beautiful moment. Then, Tannhäuser leaves.

The lord enters, embracing his niece and relieved to see her sadness diminished. He tells Elizabeth that a minstrel competition will soon be held at Wartburg Castle and hopes she will attend. He sings, You are the princess of this joyful festival.

Guests arrive and celebrate the noble hall where the great singers gather. As guests take their seats, Elizabeth and the lord sit in the most honored positions.

The lord announces the theme of the minstrel competition: What is the true meaning of love? The winner can ask anything of Elizabeth. By drawing lots, Wolfram goes first. He expresses his understanding of love through a song that emphasizes devotion and knightly spirit, earning high praise. However, Tannhäuser finds it lacking in passion. Elizabeth is once again confused, torn between joy and anxiety. After a moment of chaos and argument, order is restored. Then, Tannhäuser rises to sing a passionate love song to the goddess Venus: I celebrate you, goddess of love!

The people are horrified to realize that he has been to the alluring place of Venusberg. Elizabeth turns pale with shock. The knights and lords condemn this evil man, but only Elizabeth, enduring the pain, defends him by saying: Gods will is that sinners should achieve forgiveness through redemption. Everyone considers Elizabeth an angel. Tannhäuser deeply regrets his actions and vows to atone. The lord banishes him and orders him to join the pilgrims on a journey to Rome to seek redemption.

The frail Elizabeth kneels before the statue of the Virgin Mary, praying for the return of the pilgrims from Rome. Wolfram stands beside her, worried about the harm that Tannhäuser has brought her and also lamenting the power of great love. The sound of the pilgrims singing is heard, and both hope that Tannhäuser may be among them.

Elizabeth anxiously searches through the procession but finds no sign of him. She kneels again before the Virgin Mary, praying for God to hear her plea, willing to sacrifice her life for love. Wolfram offers to escort her back to Wartburg Castle, but she refuses, as she is about to embark on a journey to heaven.

Night falls, and Wolfram sings a hymn praising twilight and the stars, foreshadowing the impending death of the pure Elizabeth.

The sky darkens completely, and Tannhäuser appears, ragged and disheveled. Wolfram can barely recognize him. He asks himself if it is possible that he has returned from Rome. Tannhäuser says he wants to find his way back to Venusberg. Wolfram feels a mixture of fear and compassion. Then, Tannhäuser reveals the story of his journey.

He says that he went to Rome with a sincere desire for redemption, witnessing the sins of many pilgrims being forgiven, but he himself did not receive forgiveness and was instead cursed. The Pope told him: Those who have been in Venusberg will be eternally cursed unless I hold a staff that sprouts green leaves. Thus, Tannhäusers mind breaks down, and he flees back to his former source of happiness.

He cries out for the goddess to take him back to Venusberg. At this moment, Venus appears and welcomes him back to the cave. Faced with the power of Venus, Wolfram suddenly remembers and exclaims Elizabeths name.

As if time has stopped, Tannhäuser also repeats the name in a daze. The sound of funeral hymns is heard, torches are lit, and Wolfram realizes that Elizabeth has died. And with a roar, Venus disappears.

At dawn, Elizabeths body is carried out on a bier. Tannhäuser sings: Holy Elizabeth, pray for me! Then he collapses to the ground. Sunlight shines on the earth, and young pilgrims arrive carrying the Popes staff, which now sprouts green leaves. They sing of miracles and God: Gods grace is given to those who repent! Tannhäuser is redeemed and ascends to heaven with Elizabeth.
