"Exploring the Mythical World of Nibelungenlied: Lokis Brood, Gods of Teutons, and Valkyries" Step into the enchanting realm of Nibelungenlied, a captivating medieval epic that weaves together tales of gods and heroes. Illustrated by renowned artist Arthur Rackham in various masterpieces like "Lokis Brood" from Valhalla: Gods of the Teutons (c. 1905) and "Freia, the fair one" for Richard Wagner's The Rhinegold and The Valkyrie (1910), these images transport us to a mythical world filled with beauty and intrigue. Witness Brunnhilde on her faithful steed Grane as she leaps onto Siegfried's funeral pyre in Rackham's poignant illustration for Siegfried and The Twilight. Feel the exhilaration as you immerse yourself in "The Ride of the Valkyries, " an iconic scene that captures their fierce warrior spirit. Marvel at Odin and Fenrir locked in an eternal struggle while Freyr battles Surt amidst flames, all depicted vividly in Valhalla: Gods of the Teutons (c. 1905). Delve into Norse mythology further with Rackham's depiction of Fenris being bound tightly—an image that exudes both power and vulnerability. Discover another facet through Hendrich Hermann's artwork titled "Wotan's Farewell and Magic Fire, " which portrays a momentous farewell imbued with mysticism. Hans Makart's study piece called "The Ring of the Nibelung" offers insight into this legendary tale’s creation process. Finally, explore fragments from ancient manuscripts such as "Nibelungenhandschrift, " where Kriemhild demands proof from a coffin—a testament to her strength amidst tragedy.
