Image: Gosforth Cross Víðarr

Description: A part of the Gosforth Cross showing a humanoid figure tear apart the jaws of a monster. Usually interpreted to be Víðarr's battle with Fenrir at Ragnarök. Signed "M Petersen" in the upper left corner. It would seem that this is the upper part of the east-facing side of the shaft of the Gosforth Cross.
