A series of illustrations made after Neil Gaiman's book Norse Mythology. 

In this order:

Odin - "I am Grimnir, and I am the Hooded One. I am All-Father, and I am Gondlir Wand-Bearer. I have as many names as there are winds, as many titles as there are ways to die. My ravens are Huginn and Muninn, Thought and Memory." 

Hel - "Loki’s daughter and queen of those who die unworthy deaths: [Odin] stared at the girl: on the right side of her face her cheek was pink and white, her eye was the green of Loki’s eyes, her lips were full and carmine; on the left side of her the skin was blotched and striated, swollen in the bruises of death, her sightless eye rotted and pale, her lipless mouth wizened and stretched over skull-brown teeth."

Valkyries - "beautiful battle-maidens who collect the souls of the noble dead, will take you an bring you to the hall known as Valhalla."

Freya - "She's very beautiful when she's angry," said Thor. "You can see why that ogre wants to marry her." "Shut up, Thor," said Loki again.”
