EDITORS COMMENTS
"This evocative image depicts Odin, the supreme god of the Norse and Scandinavian pantheon, surrounded by his loyal hounds Hugin and Munin, as well as Geri and Freki. Odin, also known as Wotan or Wodan, was the god of the dead, wisdom, poetry, and the hunt. He was often depicted with two ravens, Hugin and Munin, who flew throughout the world every day bringing him information. Geri and Freki, however, were not ravens but two grey wolves. They were Odin's faithful companions and were said to be fed by the gods themselves at Odin's table in Valhalla. Despite their fierce appearance, these hounds were not guard dogs, but rather symbols of Odin's generosity and hospitality. The image captures the contrasting natures of Odin and his hounds. Odin, with his piercing gaze and flowing beard, exudes wisdom, power, and authority. His hounds, with their sharp teeth and bared fangs, represent the raw and untamed forces of nature. Despite their fierce appearance, however, these hounds could not protect Odin from the ultimate threat to his life. According to Norse mythology, Odin was eventually killed by the giant wolf Fenrir, who had been bound by the gods but managed to break free. The image serves as a reminder of the cyclical nature of life and death, and the power of the natural world over even the mightiest of gods." This photograph print is a captivating representation of Norse mythology, showcasing the complex and intriguing relationship between Odin and his hounds. It is a historical artifact that transports us back to a time when mythology played a central role in shaping the beliefs and values of societies. The image is a testament to the enduring power of mythology to inspire and captivate us, and to remind us of the rich cultural heritage of the Germanic and Scandinavian peoples.
