Lagertha’s Legacy
A Tribute to Strength, Wisdom, and Justice
As a Los Angeles-based artist visiting Denver, I had the privilege of designing a custom tattoo inspired by Lagertha, the iconic shield maiden from Vikings. This fine-line geometric piece embodies Lagertha’s duality—her beauty, represented by a detailed portrait, and her fierce warrior spirit, symbolized by her sword. The two crossed axes at the bottom reflect her sense of justice, while the owl represents her intelligence. Adorned with Nordic symbols, this tattoo honors strong, independent women, drawing from the legacy Lagertha left in the Vikings saga. A tribute to empowerment, resilience, and wisdom, this design speaks to those forging their own paths.

Bonus: Lagertha: The Enduring Legacy of Strength
Lagertha’s story, as portrayed in Vikings, is one of unparalleled strength, leadership, and resilience. As a Los Angeles-based artist visiting Denver, I drew inspiration from her character to create a tattoo that embodies these qualities. On one side of the design, her portrait reflects her grace and beauty as a leader. On the other, she grips a sword, symbolizing her role as a protector and warrior. At the bottom of the design, two crossed axes signify her commitment to justice. The owl, a symbol of wisdom, and the intricate Nordic runes complete the piece, celebrating her legacy as a shield maiden. This tattoo serves as a powerful reminder of the strength, wisdom, and independence embodied by Lagertha—qualities that resonate deeply with all women who face challenges head-on. Through this design, I sought to honor not only Lagertha’s story but also the strength of every woman who wears her spirit on their skin. Like Lagertha, we can rise above adversity, embracing our power and forging our own legacies.
