EDITORS COMMENTS
The Valkyrie, painted by German artist Heinrich Bürck in 1881, is a stunning representation of the mythological figure Brunhilde, also known as Brünnhilde, Brynhildr, or Brunhild. This oil on wood masterpiece showcases the Valkyrie in her full glory, with long flowing golden hair, wings spread wide, and armor adorned with intricate patterns. The Valkyrie is a figure from Norse and Germanic mythology, often depicted as a warrior maiden who chose fallen heroes to join the god Odin in Valhalla. Bürck's painting is a nod to the rich folklore and literature surrounding the Valkyrie, with influences from the Edda, Nibelungenlied, Volsunga Saga, and the Ring des Nibelungen by Richard Wagner. The allegorical and literary significance of the Valkyrie is evident in the painting, with themes of heroism, fate, and the cycle of life and death. The Valkyrie's name, meaning "chooser of the slain," is fitting for this powerful and iconic figure. She is often depicted riding a horse, with a spear in hand, and wearing a helmet adorned with feathers. In this painting, Bürck captures the essence of the Valkyrie's strength and beauty, making it a must-see for anyone interested in the history and mythology of Germany and the Middle Ages. Bürck's The Valkyrie is a testament to the enduring power of mythology and folklore, and a reminder of the rich cultural heritage that continues to inspire artists and audiences alike. This painting is a treasure in any private collection and a reminder of the beauty and complexity of the stories and myths that have shaped our collective imagination for centuries.
