Odin’s Wolves
“Geri and Freki the war-wont sates,
the triumphant sire of hosts;”
– Grímnismál, Bellows Translation
Odin’s wolves are Geri and Freki. Their names mean the “ravenous or greedy one.” Odin gives them all his meat and table scraps. There are many connections between Odin and wolves, both as a god of the dead and the god who looked after young war bands often called “wolf packs.”
“Odin’s Wolves” is the first image in a series of 3 paintings called “Odin Triptych.”
The original painting was done in oil and measures 12" x 16".
Odin drinking his wine flanked by his two wolves and his two ravens.
This version of “Odin’s Triptych” is printed on high end metal. Uniquely durable with vibrant colors, brilliant luminescence, and exceptional detail.
The printing processes preserves the image by infusing dyes directly into specially coated aluminum sheets. Because the image is infused into the surface and not on it, your print will take on an almost magical luminescence. The ultra-hard scratch-resistant surface is waterproof/weatherproof and can be cleaned easily - just avoid direct sunlight.
Display it on your wall with the float mount hanger, curved edges, and high -gloss. Print measures 10 1/2” x 24”.
