There’s only a small piece of text on each page of this book, just enough to fill the space left by its intricate borders. ‘The Prism of Imagination’ was written by the Baroness de Calabrella and published in 1844.

Sola ruin church. Two modern bauta commemorate Astrid and Erling Skjalgsson, end of the Viking Age. Erling was a Christian Viking, a stave church likely stod her before the stone church. Archaeological graves tell of a large farm on the land here (Sola, outside Stavanger) by the North Sea. #norway

Happy International women’s day ~ talked about women in the Viking Age for todays day. One of them was the mighty Volve, a sorcerous, once a respected role of women of age. The new religion Christianity forbade magic, a fall for strong women. The local Queen of Gausel (painting) had a Volve staff.
