Rolf og Viggo 1852

"Rolf og Viggo" is a black and white woodcut created in 1852 by Danish artist Axel Theodor Kittendorff. The scene depicts a group of Vikings gathered in a hall, with a central figure, possibly Rolf, holding a spear and addressing the group. The detail and emotion of the artwork are characteristic of Kittendorff's style, which often depicted historical and mythological scenes. The work is held in the collection of the SMK - Statens Museum for Kunst in Denmark and provides an insight into Kittendorff's artistic approach to historical representation.
