Focus on The Death of Balder and discuss the Description.
In Eckersberg's painting, Baldr is seen lying in the foreground. He has just been hit by Höd's mistletoe arrow. Höd, Baldr's blind brother, is standing on the left, stretching his arms out. On the very left, Loki tries to conceal his smile. Odin is sitting in the middle of the Æsir. Thor with Mjölnir sits on Odin's left (the viewer's right). The three norns are seen in the background next to the Yggdrasil tree. They are dressed in simple and very dark clothes, almost like peasant women. Their faces are low and sad. Urd points her finger in the direction of Skuld. Verdandi holds a large shield in her hands, decorated with the sun, moon and two stars.
