The depiction shows Heimdall, the guardian of the gods from Norse mythology, on a galloping horse. With a determined look, he holds his sword at the ready while blowing the Gjallarhorn with his other hand. His helmet with wings, the shimmering chain mail and the flowing cloak lend him a majestic aura. The background with diagonal lines emphasises the dynamism of the scene. The bold colours and detailed contours impressively emphasise the epic appearance of this mythical figure.
