"Habito di Norvegia" is a wood-cut engraving by Christoph Krieger, created in 1598. The artwork depicts a man in a traditional Norwegian costume, wearing a large hat and holding a crossbow and arrows. The engraving is framed by a decorative border, common in Renaissance woodcuts. Krieger’s intricate detail captures the man's attire and weaponry, providing insight into the traditional costumes and weaponry of Norway at that time. The small size of the artwork, measuring 167 mm by 125 mm, highlights the popularity of these engravings for dissemination and preservation of historical information.
