EDITORS COMMENTS
This coloured engraving titled "Danish Habits" offers a glimpse into the cultural and historical significance of Danish attire. Created by an English School artist in the 19th century, this print showcases various elements of Danish dress and habits. The image is derived from a Saxon reliquary owned by Thomas Astle Esq. , providing a unique perspective on Danish fashion. The illustration was originally featured in Joseph Strutt's book "Dress and Habits of the People of England" published in 1842. Intricately hand-coloured, the engraving highlights distinctive clothing items such as swords, axes, and other weapons commonly used by Danish warriors. It not only reflects their military prowess but also sheds light on their cultural identity. With its rich detail and meticulous craftsmanship, this artwork transports viewers to a time when Vikings roamed Europe. The influence of Germanic culture is evident through references to Germany and North Germany within the image. As we admire this piece from Bridgeman Images' private collection, we are reminded of how clothing can serve as both practical garments and symbols of heritage. This print serves as a valuable resource for those interested in British history or anyone captivated by Norsemen's fascinating way of life.
