EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving by Olaus Magnus takes us back in time to the Nordic wilderness, where Norwegian hunters traverse the snowy terrain on skis and reindeer. The scene is filled with a sense of adventure and tranquility as these skilled hunters effortlessly glide through the snow-covered landscape. Olaus Magnus, a Swedish religious figure and geographer, beautifully captures the essence of this ancient hunting tradition in his work titled "Historia de Gentis Septentrionalibus". Created in 1567 and now part of a private collection, this engraving showcases the remarkable bond between man and nature that has long existed in Norway. The composition portrays a group of Norwegian hunters clad in traditional attire, their faces hidden beneath fur-lined hoods. They skillfully navigate through thick forests and across frozen lakes using skis made from natural materials. Their trusty companions, reindeer adorned with decorative harnesses, pull sleds carrying supplies for their journey. This artwork not only celebrates the artistry of Olaus Magnus but also sheds light on an important aspect of Norwegian culture - hunting as both a means of survival and a way to connect with nature. It serves as a reminder that throughout history, humans have relied on their surroundings for sustenance while respecting its delicate balance. Giancarlo Costa's reproduction allows us to appreciate this historical masterpiece today while honoring the timeless relationship between humans, animals, and our natural world.
