Summary
[edit]DescriptionLbs fragm 82, 0001r - 0.jpg |
English: Kringlublaðið [the Kringla leaf] is a vellum manuscript leaf, dated c. 1260, the only one to survive from a manuscript called Kringla that was destroyed in the 1728 great fire of Copenhagen. Kringla was well known as the best manuscript of the great set of historical sagas known as Heimskringla, written by the thirteenth-century writer and statesman Snorri Sturluson (1178-1241). The leaf was found in the Royal Library in Stockholm, and is likely to have been in Stockholm from the late seventeenth century. During his state visit in Iceland in 1975 King Carl Gustav XVI presented the manuscript leaf to the Icelandic people for preservation in the National Library. The text to be found on the leaf is from Óláfs saga helga [the saga of King Ólafur the Saint], the longest of Heimskringla's 16 sagas about the kings of Scandinavia. |

[edit]This image is in the public domain because it is a mere mechanical scan or photocopy of a public domain original, or – from the available evidence – is so similar to such a scan or photocopy that no copyright protection can be expected to arise. The original itself is in the public domain for the following reason:
This tag is designed for use where there may be a need to assert that any enhancements (eg brightness, contrast, colour-matching, sharpening) are in themselves insufficiently creative to generate a new copyright. It can be used where it is unknown whether any enhancements have been made, as well as when the enhancements are clear but insufficient. For known raw unenhanced scans you can use an appropriate {{PD-old}} tag instead. For usage, see Commons:When to use the PD-scan tag. Note: This tag applies to scans and photocopies only. For photographs of public domain originals taken from afar, {{PD-Art}} may be applicable. See Commons:When to use the PD-Art tag. |
