Denmark Unveils Smiling Figurine Thought to be Viking 'Portrait'

October 16, 2025

Denmark's National Museum has unveiled what it described as the first “portrait” of a Viking: a miniature 10th-century figurine depicting a man with an imperial moustache, braided beard and neatly-groomed hairstyle.

Denmark Unveils Smiling Figurine Thought to be Viking 'Portrait'

Carved out of ivory walrus tusk, the partially damaged representation of a head and torso measures just 1.2 inches.

“If you think of Vikings as savage or wild, this figure is proving the opposite, actually. He is very well-groomed,” curator Peter Pentz said, holding up the piece with white-gloved hands.

“He has a center parting up to the top of his head, and then in the neck his hair is cut,” Pentz said.

He has a side wave that leaves the ear visible, and, in addition to a large moustache and a long, braided goatee, he also has sideburns.

A political earthquake called Kiko Barzaga

Much like an intensity 10 earthquake, this impertinent and irreverent young guy is rocking the boat. He is openly challenging the gods. He is like the child Jesus debating with the Pharisees, scribes, and teachers of the law right there in the Temple. He is driving away the corrupt moneychangers transforming his father’s house into a den of thieves.
