http://www.worldcat.org/oclc/80190816

Six set designs in gouache and watercolor and ten costume designs in ink and watercolor for Richard Wagner's opera Parsifal. Although Lefler produced designs for the entire opera for a production at the Vienna Volksoper in January 1914, only the costume designs for the second act (represented in this collection) were used. All of the designs bear captions in pencil or ink, and many are signed by Lefler with a lower-case "l."

16 drawings : col. ; 41 x 31 cm.
