The mural represents two famous images from Ihsahn’s long career as Emperor main figure and the small revealing ceremony was very enjoyable for those who got to attend. Ihsahn has shared some of his memories from his youth years and encouraged young people to dare to follow their artistic dreams and work to overcome obstacles.
