Drawn in 1895, Frølich's illustration of the Lokasenna scene shows the Norse trickster god Loki bound to three stones, with Skadi setting the serpent above his head whose venom drips into a basin held by his wife Sigyn. The image illustrates the canonical Norse-mythology moment from the Poetic Edda where Loki, having insulted the gods at Aegir's feast, is punished. When Sigyn must empty the basin, the venom falls on Loki's face; his writhing causes earthquakes.
Frølich was the most prolific Danish illustrator of Norse mythology, working across the late nineteenth century to produce the canonical visual repertoire of Scandinavian heroic poetry. His illustrations populate Karl Gjellerup's Den ældre Eddas Gudesange and Olaf Olsen's later editions. The Frølich vocabulary — angular bodies, dense linework, half-pagan and half-ecclesiastical — became the template by which most readers picture Norse myth.
The illustration is in the public domain. It has been reproduced more times than almost any other single Norse-myth image since 1895 and is the visual the Eddic Lokasenna is now usually pictured through.
