Artwork description
Based on the viking mythology Fenrir or Fenrisúlfr, also referred to as Hróðvitnir and Vánagandr, is a monstrous wolf in Norse mythology. In Old Norse texts, Fenrir plays a key role during the events of Ragnarök, where he is foretold to assist in setting the world aflame, resulting in the collapse of humanity and society, and kill the god Odin.
Fenrir represents the forces of evil and chaos against the goodness and order of the Aesir gods, whose king is Odin. The fact that Fenrir clashes directly with Odin suggest the two are of comparable strength; Odin is the king of order, while Fenrir is the king of chaos.
