Mine was on the table since a long time, begun but not finished...
I've taken my brushes, my colours and here is the result :
but what is a Skald ?? (in french : Skalde ou Scalde)
Wikipedia.uk says :
"The term skald (or skáld) meaning ‘poet’, is generally used for poets who composed at the courts of Scandinavian and Icelandic leaders during the Viking Age and Middle Ages. Skaldic poetry forms one of two main groupings of Old Norse poetry, the other being the anonymous Eddic poetry."
Pour tous mes fidèles lecteurs français :
Wikipedia.fr dit que:
"Le scalde est un poète scandinave, très souven tislandais , du Moyen-Âge , essentiellement du IXème au XIIème siècle.
Il compose en se fondant sur l'allitération, le compte des syllabes, et l'accentuation. Sa poésie, avec ou sans refrain , volontairement sans lyrisme, loue des personnages, récapitule un lignage, expose des sentiments personnels ou décrit un bel objet. etc.... "
... so we can say that it's a sort of Viking troubadour! I've not really find pictures of Skalds on the web, so I felt completely free for the colours! (something I like at mostly ! ). In comparison with the colour scheme of Andi, it's completely different !
