This print captures a remarkable moment in Norse mythology, depicting the legendary Sigurd as he fearlessly roasts the heart of the fearsome Dragon, Fafnir. The scene is set within the intricate details of Hylestad Church in Norway, dating back to the 12th-13th century. In this mesmerizing image, we see Sigurd standing tall and resolute, his masculine presence exuding strength and determination. With flames dancing around him, he expertly tends to the dragon's heart over an open fire while Regin peacefully slumbers nearby. The religious symbolism intertwined with this historical artifact adds depth to its significance. It serves as a visual representation of Christian beliefs during that era and showcases how Christianity was incorporated into Norse mythology.
