EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Viking runestone, dating back to the 8th century. The intricate carving depicts a majestic ship sailing through turbulent waters, accompanied by the legendary eight-legged horse Sleipnir. This mythical creature was born from Loki, the mischievous god of Norse mythology and served as Odin's loyal steed. Discovered in Tjangivde, Alskog, Gotland, Sweden, this artifact offers us a glimpse into the rich religious beliefs and cultural practices of ancient Scandinavia. Against a striking black background that accentuates its details and colors, this studio shot captures the essence of this historical masterpiece. The image not only highlights the craftsmanship involved in creating such an elaborate runestone but also reflects on the significance of water transport during that era. It reminds us of how vital ships were for exploration, trade routes, and conquests across vast seas. As we delve into Nordic mythology through this photograph, we are reminded of Odin's divine status as he traverses realms on his trusted companion Sleipnir. This artwork serves as a testament to human creativity and devotion to their deities. Preserved with care by CM Dixon and Mike Dixon (not affiliated with any company), this extraordinary relic continues to inspire awe among those who appreciate both artistry and history.
