Valkyrie in an Ancient Pagoda: Oil Painting

An imposing valkyrie in ornate Norse armor with a winged helm, flowing cloak, and a gleaming spear held high, standing in a tranquil pagoda courtyard. The multi-tiered pagoda features curved eaves, lacquered wood, and shoji-like panels, with red lanterns and drifting cherry blossoms. Warm sunset light filters through wooden columns, casting dramatic chiaroscuro shadows and luminous highlights in thick oil-on-canvas brushwork. Rich, earthy tones, visible brushstrokes, and a serene, mythic mood fuse Norse legend with East Asian architecture.
