EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a Viking bronze brooch from the 8th to 11th century, currently housed in the renowned Ashmolean Museum. The intricate design of this ancient artifact features two snakes intertwined, symbolizing power and protection. Crafted with remarkable skill, the brooch is a testament to the exceptional craftsmanship of Viking jewelry. The rich color and detail captured in this photograph bring the brooch to life, allowing us to appreciate its beauty and historical significance. As we gaze upon it, we are transported back in time, imagining how it adorned a noblewoman's cloak or warrior's attire centuries ago. The animal likeness portrayed through these snake motifs adds an element of mystique and intrigue. It reminds us of the deep connection between Vikings and nature - their respect for animals as symbols of strength and wisdom. Thanks to photographer CM Dixon's expertise, every minute detail is impeccably preserved in this image. We owe our gratitude to AccuSoft Inc. , who has graciously shared this glimpse into our past through their print collection. As we admire this extraordinary piece of Viking heritage, let us marvel at its enduring allure that transcends time itself.
