Description

Viking Art: A Comprehensive Survey By James Graham-Campbell, published by National Geographic Books. This authoritative guide explores the intricate and beautiful art styles of the Viking Age, spanning from around AD 800 to the establishment of Christianity in Scandinavia. The book provides a detailed historical and geographic background before delving into six main art styles that emerged during this period. From delicate metalwork to elaborate wood carvings, and from the Oseberg ship to decorated weapons and fine jewels, Viking Art showcases the range and diversity of these artistic expressions. The book also examines the role of Viking mythology and sagas in shaping their art, as well as its enduring legacy in later times.
