La Porte de Parsifal (1890-94) was commissioned by the wealthy American Winnaretta Singer to be a monumental entrance for the room in her new Parisian home designed to house the original manuscript of the Richard Wagner opera (Although, it is possible that she ultimately never acquired the manuscript).
