EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning color lithograph from 1897 depicts the powerful Norse god Odin with his two loyal companions, Hugin (thought) and Munin (memory), perched on his shoulders. The artist, Walter Puttner, captures the essence of this iconic deity with intricate detail and vibrant colors.
Odin, known as the Allfather in Norse mythology, is often associated with wisdom, knowledge, and war. He is depicted here wearing his signature winged helmet and holding Grungir, the spear that never misses its mark. Despite being blind in one eye, Odin exudes strength and authority as he gazes into the distance.
Hugin and Munin are symbolic representations of Odin's omniscience - they fly throughout the world each day to gather information and bring it back to him at night. The crows are intricately detailed in their feathers and expressions, adding depth to this mystical scene.
The background features a dramatic sky filled with billowing clouds and a rainbow arching overhead. This composition creates a sense of mystery and magic surrounding Odin's presence.
Overall, this print beautifully captures the essence of one of Norse mythology's most revered figures. It serves as a reminder of Odin's power and influence over all realms - both earthly and divine.
