## Image Caption
The Norse Goddess [Sif](https://www.worldhistory.org/Sif/) as imagined by English artist John Charles Dollman in the illustration of page 64 of *Myths of the Norsemen from the [Eddas](https://www.worldhistory.org/Edda/) and Sagas* by Guerber, H. A., Harrap, London, 1909.
The figure in the background is usually given as her husband [Thor](https://www.worldhistory.org/Thor/) but makes more sense as the [god](https://www.worldhistory.org/God/) [Loki](https://www.worldhistory.org/Loki/), coming to cut her hair after she sleeps.
