EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative 16th century image from Sweden, a group of travellers in a horse-drawn sleigh bravely defend themselves against a pack of attacking wolves. Dressed in heavy furs and armed with weapons such as guns, crossbows, and pikes, the travellers show no sign of fear as they face the fierce predators. The year is believed to be around 1555, during a time when Sweden was still largely covered in forests, making encounters with wolves a common occurrence for travellers and settlers. The scene is reminiscent of the harsh realities of life in the 1550s, where the simple act of travelling from one place to another could be a dangerous undertaking. The travellers' determination to protect themselves and their possessions is evident in their focused expressions and their readiness to use their weapons. The wolves, on the other hand, are depicted as wild and ferocious beasts, snarling and baring their teeth as they charge towards their human adversaries. Despite the danger, the travellers remain calm and focused, demonstrating the resilience and resourcefulness of people in the face of adversity. This historical image provides a glimpse into the past, offering a fascinating insight into the daily challenges and dangers faced by travellers in 16th century Sweden. The use of weapons such as guns, crossbows, and pikes highlights the importance of being well-prepared and equipped, even in the most inhospitable of environments. Overall, this image is a powerful reminder of the strength and determination of the human spirit, as well as the harsh realities of life in the 16th century. It is a testament to the enduring human ability to defend ourselves against even the most formidable of foes.
