Exploring the 10th Century: A Journey through Time Step into the realm of the Anglo-Saxon world as you gaze upon a captivating 10th-century map, revealing the vastness of their empire. Meanwhile, a mighty Viking ship gracefully sails across stormy seas, symbolizing their adventurous spirit and fearsome reputation. In Canterbury, St Dunstan stands tall as Archbishop, his vibrant image captured in an exquisite colored engraving. His unwavering faith guides him amidst turbulent times when Viking raiders led by Olaf I threaten peaceful lands. Witness their formidable fleet descending upon unsuspecting shores during this tumultuous era. Traveling further east to Luxembourg's Vianden Town, marvel at the majestic Vianden Castle that has withstood centuries of change. Nearby lies an archaeological site where remnants of a Viking longhouse from the 10th century whisper tales of ancient lives lived within its walls. Across distant lands, dynasties rise and fall under the watchful eye of Buwayids circa 932 A. D. , depicted in a fascinating artwork by Emery Walker Ltd. The power struggles shape history as Christ himself watches over Holy Roman Emperor Otto II and Empress Theophano in an intricately carved ivory masterpiece from this remarkable era. Legends come alive through art as we witness St Dunstan outwitting the devil in a whimsical illustration from 1826. Such stories captivate our imagination even today. Meanwhile, tourists flock to Piazza San Marco to admire its iconic Campanile tower alongside Basilica di San Marco - testaments to Venice's grandeur since time immemorial. Finally, journey eastward once more to China during Tang Dynasty (681-905 A. D. ), where celestial spheres adorned with intricate engravings reveal mankind's fascination with astronomy and cosmology throughout history.
