But the effect of the curtain was tested in the new theater building, it was found that the, as usual, did not possess in oleic place in glue or wax colors painted picture the sufficient brightness and that even the disturbing gloss is not to eliminate: and so Makart decided because withdraw quickly the curtain and, once again perform in wax color, a previously common technique he. we hear that the first image has already found another provision. the comic opera is content for the moment with the intermediate curtain.

The comparison with the made-to-the picture in the first state photogravure shows the profound part changes, carried out the Makart after the withdrawal: He not only corrected details, but also added figures added (Bacchus, satyrs on the right edge, putting next to the tigers figure in the forest clearing), worked to background landscape and sky and brought a change in the weight distribution in the composition cause.
