This image depicts the mythological pursuit of the sun and moon by the relentless wolves Skoll and Hati, as told in both German and Norse mythology. In this ancient narrative, Skoll, personifying repulsion, and Hati, embodying hate, chase the celestial bodies across the skies. The sun, represented by the radiant figure of Sol, and the moon, symbolized by Mani, are relentlessly pursued, with the wolves growing ever closer with each passing day. According to myth, if Skoll and Hati should finally catch their prey, the world would be plunged once more into darkness, marking the end of the current cosmic cycle and the beginning of a new one. This historical image offers a fascinating glimpse into the rich and complex mythological traditions of both the Germanic and Norse peoples. The intricate details of the illustration, with its bold lines and vibrant colors, serve to bring the myth to life, transporting us back to a time when the natural world was imbued with divine forces and cosmic struggles. The image also underscores the cyclical nature of time and the interconnectedness of all things, a theme that continues to resonate with us today. The origins of this myth can be traced back to pre-Christian Europe, where it was passed down through oral tradition before being recorded in various texts, including the Poetic Edda and the Prose Edda. These texts, along with other sources, have helped to preserve the stories and legends of the ancient Germanic and Norse cultures, ensuring that their rich mythological heritage continues to captivate and inspire us.
