EDITORS COMMENTS
This photo print, titled "Brunhild, The Warrior-Queen, Hurls Her Spear at Gunthers Shield" takes us back to the 19th century America. Created by an unknown artist and featured in the publication "St. Nicholas: Volume IX. Part I" in 1882, this illustration showcases a fierce female warrior engaging in combat. In Norse mythology, Brunhild is known as a shieldmaiden and one of the valkyries - powerful women who decide the fate of warriors on the battlefield. This monochrome depiction captures her strength and determination as she launches her spear towards Gunthers' shield. The image transports us to a time when warfare was seen as both a concept and reality for many nations. It symbolizes not only the courage of women in battle but also their contribution to history. Although we may never know the true identity of its creator or where exactly this scene took place, it serves as a reminder that throughout history, women have played significant roles in shaping our world through acts of bravery and resilience. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece from Scribner & Co. , let us appreciate the indomitable spirit embodied by Brunhild – an embodiment of power that transcends time and borders.
