Farver. Vægmalerier i Ansgar Kirke år 860.

COLOURS
Murals in the Ansgar Church 860 AD
The Danish National Museum has analyzed the few remains of paint from the Viking Age that have been found. Those are the colours and binders we use for the paintings in the Ansgar Church in Ribe VikingeCenter. Learn more as visual artist Trine Theut explains about the colours in this video.
In Ribe VikingeCenter we are currently recreating the church room in the Ansgar Church as it very well might have looked like in the 9th century. The early churches were full of colourful illustrations of biblical events, which served as an effective communication of the Christian religion. That is why we are having 50 carolingian style scenes from the Bible painted on the walls of the Ansgar Church.
Research, sketching and painting is carried out by visual artist Trine Theut. She was also the driving force behind the exterior of the church.

FARVER
Vægmalerier i Ansgar Kirke år 860
De få farverester fra vikingetiden, som er fundet, er blevet analyseret af Nationalmuseet. Det drejer sig om Stavkirken ved Hørning, Ryttergraven ved Grimstrup, Skjoldet fra Trelleborg samt Kong Gorms høj ved Jelling, hvor der er fundet en træudskæring med malingrester. Det er disse farver og bindemidler, der benyttes til vægmalerierne i Ansgar Kirke på Ribe VikingeCenter. Hør billedkunstner Trine Theut fortælle mere her i videoen.
På Ribe VikingeCenter arbejder vi på at genskabe kirkerummet i Ansgar Kirke, som det meget vel kunne have taget sig ud i 800-tallet. De tidlige kirker var fulde af farvestrålende illustrationer af bibelhistorien, som var helt væsentlige for udbredelsen af kirkens budskab. Derfor udsmykker vi væggene med 50 motiver i karolingisk stil.
Research, skitser og bemaling udføres af billedkunstner Trine Theut, der også har været dybt involveret i kirkens udvendige udtryk.
