EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stunning silver pendant from Gotland, beautifully engraved by an English School artist in the 19th century. The pendant, now part of a private collection, is a true testament to the exquisite craftsmanship and aesthetic sensibilities of the Norsemen during the later Iron Age. The intricate pattern and design on this pendant reflect the unique style and workmanship applied by Viking artisans. It provides us with a glimpse into the industrial arts of Scandinavia in its pagan age. Hans Hildebrand's book, "The Industrial Arts of Scandinavia in the Pagan Age" published in 1892, features this remarkable illustration as an example of Scandinavian artistry. Through digital cleaning techniques, this image has been restored to its original glory, allowing us to appreciate every delicate detail. The pendant's silver composition adds to its allure and speaks volumes about the importance placed on precious metals within Norse culture. Gotland itself holds significance as it was once home to thriving Viking communities. This piece serves as a tangible connection between modern-day admirers and ancient Scandinavian heritage. With its rich history and undeniable beauty, this silver pendant transports us back in time while reminding us of the enduring legacy left behind by these skilled craftsmen.
