Egil Skallagrimsson Figure (born in Iceland in the year 910, died around 990). Egil was a Viking and a Skald.
Hand painted and was designed in Norway using descriptions in Egil`s Saga of the icelandic poet,warrior and farmer. There is high drama in this Saga with plots,characters,actions and settings that read like a modern novel. Of special interest are the stories of his feuds with Norwegain Kings, which he continued all his life. The Saga was probably written by Snorri Sturlusson (AD1179-1241), Icelands renowned Historian who was Egils descendant.

Very well made realistic Viking Figurine from the Norse Viking Days getting ready for battle in his Armour suit, helmet, axe and shield. This figurine stands just over 8 inches (20 cm).
