EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a handcoloured copperplate engraving of two Ancient Germanic deities, Svetovid and Triglav. Created by Nasi in the 19th century, this illustration beautifully captures the essence of these powerful gods from Norse mythology. Svetovid, the Slavic war god with four heads, was worshipped by the Rugians. His imposing figure symbolized strength and protection for his followers. On the other hand, Triglav, the three-headed Slavic god worshipped by the Vandals, represented power and divine authority. The intricate details of this artwork bring to life these ancient deities who were revered by their worshipers centuries ago. The artist's skillful use of color adds depth and vibrancy to each character depicted in this print. As we gaze upon this historical masterpiece, we are transported back in time to an era where belief in these gods played a significant role in society. This image not only serves as a visual representation of ancient Germanic culture but also offers us a glimpse into their religious practices and beliefs. Preserved through time, this enchanting illustration is part of Giulio Ferrario's renowned work "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of the World". It stands as a testament to our fascination with history and our desire to understand cultures that have shaped our world today.
