EDITORS COMMENTS
This handcoloured copperplate engraving, titled "Ancient Germanic gods and kings: Flins and Radgost" takes us on a journey into the rich mythology of the past. Created by Nasi in the 19th century, this print showcases two powerful figures from ancient Germanic culture. On the left stands Flinna or Flins, revered as the god of death in Wendish mythology and idolized by the Vandals. Cloaked in mystery, his presence exudes an aura of darkness and intrigue. On the right stands Radagasto or Radgost, adorned with an ax, bird crown, and bull breastplate. As king of the Obotrites and worshipped by the Moravians, he symbolizes strength and leadership. The intricate details captured through handcolouring bring these deities to life. Each stroke adds depth to their expressions while highlighting their majestic attire. This illustration is part of Giulio Ferrario's renowned work "Costumes Ancient and Modern of the Peoples of The World" which offers a glimpse into historical fashion across various cultures. As we gaze upon this mesmerizing artwork, we are reminded that myths transcend time; they connect us to our ancestors' beliefs and offer insights into their worldviews. Through this print's depiction of ancient Germanic gods and kings, we find ourselves immersed in a realm where legends intertwine with history. With its blend of artistic mastery and historical significance, this print captures both imagination and curiosity – inviting us to explore further into Norse mythology while appreciating its visual splendor.
