EDITORS COMMENTS
Thor, the God of Thunder, and Hymir, the giant, engage in an epic battle of wits and strength in this scene from Norse mythology. The image portrays the moment when Thor, having successfully caught the fearsome World Serpent during a fishing expedition, stands triumphantly with the monstrous creature coiled at his feet. However, Hymir, filled with terror at the sight of the writhing serpent, reacts unreasonably by cutting the line, much to Thor's dismay. This historical print, from the vast collection at Mary Evans Picture Library, transports us back to the rich tapestry of Germanic mythology. Thor, the mighty god, is depicted with his iconic hammer Mjölnir, while Hymir is shown as a fearsome giant, with bulging muscles and a menacing expression. The World Serpent, an ancient and powerful creature, is rendered in intricate detail, its scales shimmering with an otherworldly glow. The myth of Thor and Hymir's fishing expedition is a fascinating tale from Norse mythology, showcasing the gods' power and capriciousness. Thor, known for his legendary strength and thunderous temper, is said to have embarked on this adventure to prove his worth to the giant Hymir. The catch of the World Serpent was a significant victory, a testament to Thor's godly prowess. However, Hymir's fear and unreasonable actions led to his tragic end. Thor, angered by the giant's cowardice, killed him on the spot. This event underscores the unpredictable nature of the gods and the consequences of fear and cowardice in the face of the unknown. This print offers a glimpse into the rich and complex world of Norse mythology, a fascinating and enduring part of human history.
