The Wild Hunt of Odin Floor Mat
Experience the dramatic power of Norse mythology with our Foldable Rectangular Floor Mat featuring "The Wild Hunt of Odin" by Peter Nicolai Arbo. This striking floor covering brings one of the most iconic depictions of Norse legend into your living space.
Artwork
The Wild Hunt of Odin (Åsgårdsreien) is a masterful painting created by Norwegian artist Peter Nicolai Arbo in 1872. This large-scale work depicts the fearsome spectacle of the Wild Hunt—a procession of ghostly hunters led by the one-eyed god Odin on his eight-legged horse Sleipnir, thundering across the night sky. According to Norse mythology, this supernatural hunting party was believed to presage war, plague, or other disasters when spotted by mortals.
Arbo's dynamic composition captures the chaotic energy of the hunt, with dozens of spectral warriors, Valkyries, and fallen heroes swept along in a furious storm cloud above a moonlit fjord landscape. The ghostly participants, many brandishing weapons and riding on skeletal horses, create a sense of otherworldly terror and exhilaration. Odin himself is recognizable at the front of the procession with his single eye, broad-brimmed hat, and accompanied by his ravens Huginn and Muninn.
This painting exemplifies the 19th-century Romantic fascination with Norse mythology and the cultural nationalism that characterized Scandinavian art of the period. Arbo, who specialized in mythological and historical subjects, created several versions of this theme, with the most famous now housed in the National Museum of Art, Architecture and Design in Oslo. With its dramatic lighting, swirling composition, and mythic power, The Wild Hunt continues to captivate viewers as a potent visualization of ancient Northern European folklore. The work stands as a testament to the enduring fascination with Norse mythology and its supernatural elements, which have influenced everything from Wagner's operas to modern fantasy literature and gaming culture.
