Couldn't resist any longer. I ate my chocolate replica of the Sutton Hoo belt buckle made by @ganderwick_creations . It was beautiful to behold for a month and a half but now i am hungry. #anglosaxonart #anglosaxon #suttonhoo https://www.instagram.com/p/B8d-sl7AQsC/?igshid=13f4fwh46vhho

Beowulf, drawn by me. It's very possible that this story really doesn't need another illustrator working it over, but I've just finished reading the story again and only noticed how Beowulf's wildboar helmet is mentioned a few times, so I drew it. #beowulf #beowulfhelmet #wildboar #nordic #danish #geites #grendel #suttonhoo #vickingwarrior #nowellcodex #danes #geats #artistoninstagram #artistontumblr #myownwork #ipadproart #charleskeeping #anglosaxon #wuffingas

An illustration based on an image on a pressblech from the Sutton Hoo helmet. This features the horned man motif - the specific variant known as the “horned spear dancer” also seen on the torslunda pressblech die from Sweden. All examples of the “horned man motif” from Vikings in Russia to migration era Anglo-Saxon England, depict not a man with horns, or a horned helmet, but a man wearing a head dress which has horns that are actually two stylised birds. The horned figure sometimes wields a spear and is sometimes dancing. In other images this figure appears to guide the spear of a separate warrior. It seems in some cases the figure represents a man involved in a ritual dance in which he becomes a god, presumably Odin due to the two birds and the spear association, and in other cases the figure actually IS that god and is guiding the weapons of the warrior in combat. #hornedman #pressblech #migrationera #suttonhoo #anglosaxon #germanicartifacts #vikingera #odinism #woden #viking #barbarians #paganism https://www.instagram.com/p/B26JI2Wg-Cq/?igshid=10z0uatqkltyf
