Skadi the goddess of the hunt and winter, figure / statue, bronzed

Skadi - Goddess of the hunt and winter, accompanied by the wolf.
Sculpture Skadi, Skaði, also known as Skade, the goddess of winter, snow, ice, skiing, and the hunt.

After the gods killed Skadi's father, Thiazi, she traveled to Asgard to demand retribution for his death. She demanded a husband and that she be made to laugh. Her first request was granted on the condition that she choose her future husband based solely on his feet. Thus, Skadi chose Njörðr based on his feet, even though she had hoped for Baldur. Her second request was fulfilled by Loki, who made her laugh with a goat. He tied his testicles to the goat's beard with a cord and began a kind of tug-of-war. Overwhelmed by this silly sight, Skadi burst into peals of laughter. With that, she was reconciled with the Aesir. Odin himself made further amends by throwing her father's eyes into the sky, where they henceforth twinkled as two stars.
The marriage to Njörðr did not go well - Skadi loved the mountains, whereas Njörðr loved the sea. They agreed to spend 9 nights in each place, but this solution was not successful. Skadi was bothered by the cries of the seabirds and Njörðr by the howling of wolves. So Skadi returned to Thrymheim, where she enjoyed hunting with her bow.
Later, she fastened a venomous snake above Loki's head because he had insulted her with vile slurs.
