Thank you. the pic attached to this post is Brynhild (Norse, translates to warrior who wears chain maile). She is a Peri, which is an angelic/fairy-like creature originating in Persia. The Peris were angels who got stuck between heaven and hell when God locked Lucifer out of heaven, and spent centuries wandering the earth. The tale of the Peri has been adapted many times since then, with two more commonly known versions recounted in Thomas Moore’s “Paradise and the Peri” and Paul Dukas’s ballet “La Peri”.
