Siegfried tötet den Drachen 

Victor Müller’s drawing, "Siegfried Slaying the Dragon," captures a pivotal moment from Norse mythology, a tale resonating with primal struggle. Here, Siegfried embodies human courage, locked in mortal combat with the dragon—a symbol of chaos and the untamed forces of nature. The dragon motif, however, is not confined to Germanic lore. Serpents and dragons appear across cultures, from the Leviathan of Jewish tradition to the dragons of the Far East. In each iteration, the dragon represents a formidable, often malevolent power. Yet, it’s the hero's triumph over this chaos that truly captivates us. This victory is not merely physical but psychological. The dragon, in a Freudian sense, might symbolize our deepest fears and repressed desires. Siegfried's victory, then, becomes a powerful symbol of overcoming our inner demons, a recurring theme echoed through the ages. The image speaks to our collective unconscious, a reminder of the eternal battle between order and chaos, courage and fear.
