The Industrial Arts of Scandinavia: In the Pagan Time (1883) is a historical and cultural study of the art and crafts of the Scandinavian people during the pre-Christian era. Written by Hans Hildebrand, a renowned Swedish art historian and archaeologist, the book offers a comprehensive overview of the artistic traditions and techniques of the Vikings and other ancient Scandinavian cultures.The book is divided into several chapters, each of which explores a different aspect of Scandinavian art and craftsmanship. The first chapter provides an overview of the historical and cultural context of the region, including the various tribes and kingdoms that inhabited Scandinavia during the pagan era. Subsequent chapters focus on specific art forms, such as metalwork, woodworking, textiles, and pottery.Throughout the book, Hildebrand provides detailed descriptions and analyses of individual art pieces, as well as broader discussions of the artistic styles and techniques that characterized the period. He also draws on archaeological evidence and historical accounts to shed light on the social and religious contexts in which these works were created.Overall, The Industrial Arts of Scandinavia: In the Pagan Time is a valuable resource for anyone interested in the art and culture of the Viking and pre-Viking eras. It offers a rich and detailed look at the artistic traditions of this fascinating period in Scandinavian history, and provides a deeper understanding of the cultural and social contexts in which these works were produced.This scarce antiquarian book is a facsimile reprint of the old original and may contain some imperfections such as library marks and notations.
