EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Man of the Fenni people or Screrefennae (skiing Finns)" offers a glimpse into the rich history and traditions of Scandinavia. Created by Christoph Krieger in the 16th century, this print showcases a man belonging to the Fenni tribe, known for their skiing prowess. Dressed in garments made from bear and wolf skins, this figure exudes strength and resilience. He carries a bow and arrow, symbolizing his skill as a hunter. However, what truly sets him apart is his footwear - long wooden shoes resembling skis. These innovative tools allowed him to navigate through snowy terrains with ease. The intricate decorative frame surrounding the engraving was created by H. Catenacci and Fellmann, adding an extra layer of artistry to this historical piece. Gerard Seguin and E. F. Huyot then meticulously engraved Krieger's woodcut design onto paper. Through this image, we are transported back in time to witness not only the fashion choices but also gain insight into the daily life of these ancient peoples. This print serves as a testament to their resourcefulness in adapting to their environment while showcasing their unique cultural identity. With its attention to detail and historical significance, "Man of the Fenni people or Screrefennae (skiing Finns)" is both an artistic masterpiece and an invaluable artifact that sheds light on centuries-old traditions within Scandinavian society.
