Thiassi Abducting Idunn 1987

Boris Vallejo's "Thiassi Abducting Idunn" (1987) is a dramatic depiction of the Norse myth in which Thiassi, a giant in the form of an eagle, kidnaps the goddess Idunn. Vallejo's characteristically vibrant colors and muscular figures are evident in this work, capturing the intensity of the moment as Thiassi carries a struggling Idunn towards his lair. The artwork exemplifies Vallejo's mastery of fantasy art, blending classical realism with fantastical elements.
