Description

Photograph of a painting of a Viking ship sitting in a harbor, ca.1900. The oars of the ship are depicted in the water while the sail is furled. A large stone church-like structure sits on the nearby shore with a few smaller humbler buildings in the left background, while two boulders and two low-flying birds are visible in the foreground.
