EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a remarkable Norse dragon cross-slab from the 11th century, discovered on the enchanting Isle of Man. The slab, carved with exquisite precision and adorned in vibrant colors, is a true testament to Scandinavian artistry. In this particular piece, two stylized dragons gracefully intertwine at each side of the cross shaft, their heads positioned below the ring at its center. Against a striking black background, this studio shot allows every intricate detail of the artifact to shine through. The mythical creatures depicted on the slab exude an air of power and mystique as they come alive in vivid color. This image transports us back in time to an era when mythology and folklore held great significance in Norse culture. The location itself adds another layer of intrigue to this ancient treasure. The Isle of Man has long been associated with Viking heritage and serves as a fitting backdrop for such an extraordinary find. As we gaze upon this ornate object, we can't help but marvel at its historical significance and artistic beauty. Captured expertly by photographer CM Dixon (not affiliated with any company), this print preserves not only the physicality of the artifact but also its cultural importance. It invites us into a world where mythical beasts roamed freely and legends were etched into stone for generations to come.
