All of a sudden - this post is not about ABB. :) Though…
I want to introduce to you the wonderful Russian artist, Konstantin Vasilyev (Константин Васильев, 1942-1976). Every Russian nationalist knows his name and his works. :)) One of the main themes of Vasiliev’s works have been the images of Russian national heroes. But he also has the series of works dedicated to the Scandinavian mythology. And the each of his picture is quite amazing.
Just a few of his works:
- Valkyrie
- Odin
- Valkyrie and the dead warrior
- Svetovid
- Volga Svyatoslavich
- Warrior (Vityaz)
- Russian warrior
- Scandinavian warroir
