EDITORS COMMENTS
In this engraving titled "The Gods of the North: Woden Welcoming the God of Music" we are transported to a mythical realm where ancient deities come alive. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases a momentous encounter between two powerful gods. At the center of the composition stands Woden, known as Odin in Norse mythology, with his majestic figure exuding wisdom and authority. His long cloak billows behind him as he extends his arms in a welcoming gesture towards another deity approaching from afar. This divine visitor is none other than the God of Music, whose presence is hinted at by ethereal melodies that seem to resonate through the image. The scene is bathed in soft light, casting an otherworldly glow on both gods and their surroundings. The attention to detail is remarkable; every line and stroke captures intricate patterns on their garments and ornate accessories. This engraving was originally featured in "The Illustrated History of the World" published by Ward Lock around 1880. Thanks to digital restoration techniques, we can now appreciate its beauty anew. As we gaze upon this artwork today, it serves as a reminder of our fascination with ancient mythologies and our enduring appreciation for art's ability to transport us into realms beyond our own reality.
