Baldr, Nanna and their son Forseti. Iðunn and Bragi. Signed: C. Ehrenberg, Dresdn, 1883.
We find the light god, Baldur, in the first picture, with his wife Nanna. Both their heads are wreathed with flowers. They are beautiful figures, bright and youthful. Nanna hugs her husband lovingly and he holds her. A draped mantel falls over Baldur's light undergarment. Nanna's robe is wide and long, a delicate veil hangs down over her back, and over it lies her hair in abundance. Next to the couple is their little son Forseti, almost naked. Baldur holds his right hand on the boy's shoulder, which the child takes tenderly.
In the picture on the right, we see Bragi and Idun. Bragi is depicted as a bearded old man, his head wreathed. In his right hand, he happily holds a wine goblet, the left leaning on the harp that stands next to him. A long, wide robe covers him. Idun sits in front of him by a box containing her rejuvenating apples, one of which she has taken out with her left hand, while her right holds the lid. Her long dress is tied with a belt, her full hair is adorned with a diadem-like clip. She is young and beautiful adorn the arms.
