"Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye & Ragnar's Sons - The Great Heathen Army" (V - Ragnar Series) by Leon Goodman
"Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye & Ragnar's Sons - The Great Heathen Army" (V - Ragnar Series) by Leon Goodman
In 865 King Aella of Northumbria killed Ragnar Lodbrok in a pit of serpents. When Ragnar was suffering in the pit he is reputed to have exclaimed:
"How the young pigs would squeal if they knew what the old boar suffers!"
Meaning his sons will avenge his death!!!!
And soon his sons did know, as King Aella was foolish enough to send an embassy to acquaint them of the fact. When the brothers heard of their father's death Sigurd Snake-in-the-Eye is said to have cut himself to the bone with a knife he held in his hand and his brother Bjorn Ironside gripped his spear so tightly that the imprint of his fingers was left in the wood.

Leon Goodman has been a professional artist for the majority of his working life. His work has been sold at The Omell Gallery, Ascot, as well as Christies, the fine art auction house in London. Many of his works have sold for thousands of pounds to the U.S.A. Since seeing his work, Risborough Art Gallery have made him a regularly featured artist. Leon’s philosophy is that it is not the delineation of the subject which is important, but its fragmentation. He believes a strictly photographic image does not allow the viewer to participate in the painting. If the image is fragmented, the viewer can imagine for himself the missing parts and involve himself in the creation of the whole image. The viewer has seen his own interpretation of the fragmented images; the next viewer may see something different.
