Image of Wayland’s Smithy (Long Barrow) by wysefool

cover of wonderful book by Ursula Synge, entitled ‘Weland: Smith of the Gods’. (as I write this only two available from Amazon.co.uk at 20quid plus – no magic weapons, armour or swans wings included...). Beautiful intrepretation by Charles Keeping – note the hamstrung useless leg(s) and staff to support him.
