Predecessor style: Vendel style A-E, Germanic styles of the Iron age, Roman art, Migration Period art
Successor style: Romanesque art, Merovingian art, Carolingian art, Byzantine art
Parallel style: Celtic art, Germanic art, Slavic art

The "Art of the Vikings" is broadly characterized by the Scandivanvian variant of the so-called "Germanic animal stye" (Germanː "Germanischer Tierstil") which has developed from the so-called "Vendel Style", named after the Vendel time in Sweden (550–800 A.D., Vendel A-E) with origins (among others) in arts of the late Roman Empire. Mostly were illustrated animals, preferentially eagles, hawks, and fancy birds mostly in plaited ornaments and mostly with mythological, later Christian contents inside very narrow default and strain formative rules. One is distinguishing in the Art of the Vikings the peculiaritiesː

- Oseberg Style: named after the Oseberg Ship grave with characteristic motif of the Oseberg Style is the so-called gripping beast (Vendel time style of the iron age)
- Borre Style: named after a ship grave in Borre mound cemetery near the village of Borre (Vestfold, Norway), broadly use of geometric interlace/knot patterns and zoomorphic (single animal) motifs, dominant are symmetrical, double-contoured 'ring-chain' structures (or 'ring-braid'), whose composition consists of interlaced circles separated by transverse bars and a lozenge overlay
- Jelling Style: named after the village Jelling (Denmark) where King Harald Bluetooth (King of Denmark and Norway) has bequeathed a great rune stone; this style is characterized by stylized animals with often band-shaped bodies; birds have warped beaks; this style is the dominant in the 10th century
- Mammen Style: named after the village Mammen (Jutland, Denmark); charactistic for this style are rich decorations with silver designs mostly in combination with an axe (probably a ceremonial parade weapon), rich decorated burial clothings with silver ornaments, fur, and embroideries (silver from Scandinavian ore deposits, but also as loot from raids)
- Ringerike Style: named after the Ringerike district north of Oslo (Norway), where the local reddish sandstone was widely employed for carving stones; it was the typical style of the "Viking art" of the late 10th and early 11th centuries. The animal motives were mostly lions, birds, but also imaginative band-shaped forms and spirals. Sometime appear also different types of crosses, beside of palmettes and other decorations., The "Sax" (a two-flaky war axe) appears in the art as with the Anglo-Saxon and Ottonian "Sax" as paragon.
- Urnes Style: named after the North gate of a Urnes stave church in Norway; much rune stones in this style from Sweden of the last half of the 11th and the first half of the 12th centuries; Animals heads are mostly showed in profile and have slender eyes and are curled extremities and necks.; One is distinguishing four sub stles of the "Urnes style"ː
a) Early Urnes style: similar in style of the artefacts from Lilla Valla (location in Sodermanland, Sweden, objects around 1050 A.D.), for instance works by Åsmund Kåresson and Canute the Great
b) Mid-Urnes Style: objects mainly created during the reign of the King Harald Hardrade of Norway (1047-1066) and King Olaf Kyrre of Norway (1080-1090); wood carvings from Norway (dedrological determined to the time 1050-1100 A.D.; for instance works by the runemasters Fot and Balli
c) Late Urnes Style: parallel style to the "Mid-Urnes Style" in the 12th century; animals are mostly extremely thin with circular patterns in open compositions; for instance artworks by the runemaster Öpir, a plank from Bølstad, or slso a chair from Trondheim; The so-called "Jarlabanke Runestones" belongs to this substyle too; beginning mixtures with Romanesque art elements
d) Romanesque Urnes Style: main style in Swedish mainland, and Gotland too; dendrological investigations on wooden objects from Oslo indicate to the time 1100-1175 A.D. other objects from Lisbjerg (Denmark) were dated dedrological to the year 1135 A.D., other from Ireland to the second half of the 12th century



Avant-garde art on stamps[edit]

The art sytyles of the so-called "avant-gardes" are a kind of creative forms of expression of the 20th century. They are seen as forms of the so-called "Art of the Moderne" (Modernism).

Transmitted to the arts means "avant-garde"ː "The acceptance that people or groups progress in the process of the progress and the rest, the mainstream, whose example follows or must follow." The avant-garde artists of the early 20th century see themselves and their art often as parallel art to the impressionism. Romain Gary (1914-1980) summarized this termː „Avant-gardists are people who exactly do not know where they want to go, but are there as first ones."

Predecessor styles: Critical Realism, Historism and related art styles of the 19th century
Successor styles: Postmodernism, art styles of the late 20th and beginning 21st century
Parallel style: Impressionism, Socialist Realism

The German Nazi's have defamed many works of these artists as "degenetated art". In 1933 the "Bauhaus" (as important source institution of the then arts) was dissolved on their order. (Although reborn after the WWII, its arts and their artists were neglected during the communist rules in Central and Eastern Europe insofar they not subordinate the state "Socialist Realism".)
