Idun_color.jpg (280 × 438 pixel, file size: 47 KB, MIME type: image/jpeg)

Public domain. Illustration by Arthur Rackham, 1910.

Oops, I see that he died in 1939—now I'm unsure whether it is actually public domain. If not, I think a case for fair use could be made, especially since it is only part of one of the innumerable paintings of Rackham.

Inferior duplicate of Image:Freya.jpg. (Wrote User:Haukurth on 00:56, July 14, 2005 (UTC))

"Inferior"?? Hey, it's smaller, but at least it's in color. I wouldn't call that "inferior"! Lupo 07:34, July 14, 2005 (UTC)
I doubt that the colour, such as it is, represents the original colours well. And it's pretty misleading for the image to be called "Idun color.jpg" since it represents Freyja. But keep it if you want it. - Haukurth 09:17, 14 July 2005 (UTC)
Excuse me? Idun was the one with the apples. And I've never see it called a represention of Freya elsewhere. Goldfritha 21:35, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
No, really, honest - it is Freyja :) It's an illustration by Rackham to a version of Wagner's works. Haukur 21:54, 23 September 2006 (UTC)
And your point? What about being an illustration to Wagner's works means that it's of Freyja? Goldfritha 02:55, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
Idun doesn't occur in Das Rheingold; read the Wikipedia synopsis and see here: [2] [3] Haukur 08:48, 24 September 2006 (UTC)
Neither does the Leviathan appear in A Midsummer Night's Dream -- but it appears in Arthur Rackham's illustrations for it. He would be capable of any kind of Norse god. Nor does that explain why she's depicted with apples, if she's not Idun. Goldfritha 03:47, 25 September 2006 (UTC)

"In Wagners Ring is Freia de hoedster van de appelen geworden. Waarschijnlijk onder invloed hiervan tekende Arthur Rackham in 1910 niet Idun, maar Freia met haar katten onder een grote appelboom." [4] Haukur 10:46, 26 September 2006 (UTC)
