Among the other titbits I came across on my sea-serpent photo-search was this Victorian-age illustration of Thor fighting (supposedly) the Midgard Serpent. The illustration is by Lorenz Frolich and shows a Thor probably more inspired by Classical images of the god Zeus. The reason I am running it here is because the creature represented is obviously a Lindorm and obviously an eel.
