Shield Maiden Pillows

The Valkyries, whose name means “chooser of the slain” are prominent figures in Old Norse mythology. They are female entities who preside over battles selecting those who died fighting valiantly to spend their afterlife in the halls of Valhalla where the Valkyries serve them mead as they plan for the events of Ragnarök. My artwork depicts a Valkyrie carrying a slain warrior to the halls of Valhalla behind her.

Design featuring a Viking Shieldmaiden. In the background is the Norse Vegvisir compass Wayfinder symbol. Runic Translation: "Skjaldmaer" / "Shieldmaiden" Skjaldmaer is the Old Norse word for shieldmaiden. The translation was done on the Norse word using Younger Futhark Viking age runes. A Shield Maiden is the female warrior equivalent of the male Vikings. The most famous of them being Lagertha. According to the legend, Lagertha was a Norwegian Viking shieldmaiden who married the famous Norse chieftain Ragnar Lothbrok. Vegvisir translates into “That Which Shows the Way” in Icelandic.

Scholars conjecture that the raven flag was a symbol of Odin, who was often depicted accompanied by two ravens named Huginn and Muninn. Its intent may have been to strike fear in one's enemies by invoking the power of Odin.
