EDITORS COMMENTS
This print captures a Scandinavian warrior from the Varangian Guard in 1924. The image, taken by Herbert Norris, is part of his book "Costume & Fashion - The Evolution of European Dress Through the Earlier Ages". The guard member, dressed in traditional attire of the 11th and 12th centuries, stands proudly with an axe in hand and shield on his back. The Varangian Guard was a renowned bodyguard unit that served as protectors to Byzantine emperors during this time period. This particular Scandinavian warrior exemplifies their strength and dedication to their profession. His helmet signifies his readiness for battle while his tunic showcases the unique clothing style of that era.
