The Keels of the Northmen - A Glimpse into Viking Invasion
EDITORS COMMENTS
. This print, titled "The Keels of the Northmen" takes us back to a pivotal moment in history. Created as an illustration for the 1897 edition of the "History of England" by H. O. Arnold-Forster, this digitally enhanced image offers a vivid portrayal of medieval times. In this scene, we witness a fleet of Nordic ships sailing across yellow-hued waters under billowing sails. The rowing oars and dragon-headed prows hint at their Viking origins, evoking both awe and fear among onlookers. With meticulous detail, the engraving showcases these seafaring invaders who once struck terror into the hearts of English settlers. Their armada represents not only their military might but also their thirst for exploration and conquest during the 19th century. The photograph captures a significant era when Norse warriors embarked on daring voyages that would shape history forever. It serves as a reminder of how these intrepid Vikings left an indelible mark on Europe's cultural landscape. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are transported to an age where legends were born and empires clashed. It is through such visual treasures that we can appreciate our rich historical heritage and marvel at humanity's enduring spirit throughout time.
