Summary

[edit]
Description
Deutsch: Monumentalstatue des Sagakönigs Frithiof der Tapfere (Nordisch: Friðþjófr hinn frœkni, Norwegisch: Fridtjof/Fridtjov den frøkne) in Vangsnes, Norwegen.
  • Eine private Fotografie, die wahrscheinlich von Knut Lind um 1941 aufgenommen wurde, aus einer Fotosammlung der Familie Lind, in der mehrere männliche Mitglieder bedeutende Positionen in der Østlandske Petroleumskompani (später Esso Norge) hatten.
  • Die Frithjofssage (is. Friðþjófs saga hins frœkna, sv. Frithiofs saga, no. Fridthiofs Saga, auch Fridtjovsoga) ist eine altnordische Heldensage vom Typus der Fornaldarsaga. Mittelpunkt und namensgebend ist die Titelfigur Frithjof, Sohn des Großbauern Torstein Vikingson, und dessen romantischer Liebe zu Ingibjörg (auch Ingebjørg oder Ingeborg), der schönen Tochter von Beles, des Königs von Sogn am Sognefjord in Norwegen.
  • Kaiser Wilhelm II. ließ 1913 in Vangsnes am Sognefjord eine Kolossalstatue des Fritjof errichten, die er den Norwegern schenkte. Sie ist zusammen mit dem Sockel 22,5 m hoch und wurde von dem deutschen Bildhauer Max Unger geschaffen. Die Statue steht in einem kleinen Park mit Aussicht auf den Fjord. Bei der Enthüllung der Statue am 31. Juli 1913 waren Kaiser Wilhelm II. sowie der norwegische König Haakon VII. anwesend.
  • Die Inschrift auf der Statue:

-Berlin, in der Zeit von 1910–1912.
Den Bronzeguss führte die
Aktien-Gesellschaft Gladenbeck

English: Moumental statue of the saga king Frithiof the Bold (Norse: Friðþjófr hinn frœkni, Norwegian: Fridtjof/Fridtjov den frøkne) in Vangsnes, Norway, created by the German sculptor Max Unger (1854–1918) between 1910 and 1912 and donated by kaiser Wilhelm II of Germany.
  • Fridtjov was the son of Torstein Vikingson, according to the Icelandic Frithiof's Saga (Friðþjófs saga ins frækna) from the 14th century. He also gained fame through the Swedish writer Esaias Tegnér's partial paraphrase in form of epic poetry pulished in 1820. The sculpture of Fridtjof is a landmark which towers 22.5 metres (74 ft) over the hilltop. It stands in a park overlooking the Sognefjord.
  • A private photograph likely taken by Knut Lind around 1941, from a photo collection from the Lind family, where several male members had prominent positions in Østlandske Petroleumskompani (later Esso Norge).
