Archivo: Peter Nicolai Arbo-Hervors død

Descripción: Hervör was a shieldmaiden in the cycle of the magic sword Tyrfing, presented in̪ the Hervarar saga, of which parts are found in the Poetic Edda. Greatly outnumbered, she died leading the army against the first assault of the Huns in an inheritance conflict between her brothers (Hlöd and Angantýr). The men in this image may represent her foster-father (Ormar) and brother (Angantýr); but as they mourn her in Árheimar (where Ormar flees to Angantýr with a report of the invasion and defeat) exactly this scene does not occur in the saga.
