Description
"Then that too shall happen, that Naglfar shall be loosened, the ship which is so named. It is made of dead men's nails; wherefore a warning is desirable, that if a man die with unshorn nails, that man adds much material to the ship Naglfar, which gods and men were fain to have finished late. Yet in this sea-flood Naglfar shall float. Hrymr is the name of the giant who steers Naglfar."Gylfaginning, 51.

the Imagination of a ship build of nails is gross but the Illustration is really good

I love the atmosphere and the colouring and the ornaments but most of all I love her face. She is like one of the great movie-heroines of the silent-movie era. Theda Bara and the like. Brilliant.

It's creepy but amazing in the same time. I've always loved Ragnarok legend! I love all the details that went into that ship, but how unearthly the woman looks is definitely the best part of the picture.
