EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Oscar Arnold Wergeland depicts the historic moment of Norwegians landing on Iceland in 872. The scene comes to life as we witness a fleet of boats, including a majestic tugboat, making their way towards the Icelandic shores. This print, part of the private collection and featured in Bildersaal Deutscher Geschichte (Union Deutsche Verlagsgesellschaft, 1890), beautifully captures the spirit of discovery and exploration that characterized this era. As our eyes delve into the intricately detailed engraving, we are transported back to a time when brave adventurers embarked on daring excursions across treacherous seas. The image not only showcases the means of transport used during this period but also highlights the significance of maritime travel for trade and cultural exchange. The historical context is further emphasized by references to Europe's medieval period and its influence on Viking culture. With an expansive map of Europe serving as a backdrop, this artwork reminds us of how interconnected these ancient civilizations were. Through Wergeland's skilled craftsmanship, we can almost feel the anticipation and excitement emanating from both travelers and locals alike upon their arrival in Iceland. It serves as a testament to humanity's insatiable thirst for knowledge and new experiences.
