Travel back in time to the Viking era with this photo print! Behold the ruins of a Norse farming complex in Greenland's Brattahlid, also known as Qassiarsuk. Dating back to the 10th-12th century AD, these ancient remnants offer a glimpse into the rich history of this Arctic region. But that's not all! Look closely and you'll spot an extraordinary metal artwork standing proudly on distant rocks. This monument pays homage to the resilient Norse Greenlanders who once thrived here. Against a backdrop of clear blue skies and breathtaking landscapes, it serves as a reminder of their cultural heritage. Cindy Miller Hopkins has beautifully captured this scene, showcasing both authenticity and contemporary artistry. The traditional village setting adds charm to the picture, transporting you to a bygone era where cowsheds dotted the countryside. Step into an archaeological dig as you explore Eriksfjord (or Erics Fjord), where excavation work continues even today. The stone structures tell tales of Nordic life and provide insight into ancient craftsmanship. Immerse yourself in this historic memorial that stands tall amidst remote surroundings. With no mention of commercial use or any company involved, let your imagination run wild as you appreciate Ardea Picture Library's stunning portrayal of Greenlands' fascinating past.
