Detail of the statue "Odin" by Bengt Erland Fogelberg.

Summary

[edit]
Description
English: Photograph taken of the face and upper torso of the statue "Odin" by Bengt Erland Fogelberg. The Statue depicts the lord of the gods "Odin" from the norse mythology, with some resemblances to the roman god Jupiter and a germanic soldier. The god is depicted with beard and a helmet with the two crows Hugin and Munin. The Statue was ordered by the swedish king Karl XIV Johan in 1830, and was then donated to the Nationalmuseum by his grandson Karl XV in 1865. The Statue was, as seen in older photos, originally located in the grand entrance of the Nationalmuseum, but it can nowadays be found in the indoor sculpture garden in one of the buildings courtyards. The statue is made of Carrara marble, its length is 312 cm, (3.12 m), and it weights approximately 3055 kilograms. All information taken from Nationalmuseum's own website.
Svenska: Fotografi tagen på ansiktet och övre kroppen av skulpturen Odin av Bengt Erland Fogelberg. Statyn ska efterlikna Odin, med några kombinationer från den romerska guden Jupiter och en germansk soldat. Guden är avbildad med skägg och en hjälm med dom två kråkorna Hugin och Munin. Statyn beställdes av kung Karl XIV Johan år 1830, men blev donerad till Nationalmuseum år 1865 av hans barnbarn kung Karl XV. Statyn var, som sedd i äldre foton, placerad i den stora entrén av Nationalmuseum, men kan nu för tiden istället bli hittad i Skulpturgården i en av byggnadens innegårdar. Statyn är gjord i Carraramarmor, är 312 cm (3.12 m) hög, och väger ungefär 3055 kilo. All information tagen från Nationalmuseums egen hemsida.
