"Frithiof at the Court of King Ring" is a painting by German artist Ferdinand Leeke (1859–1923), known for his works that often depicted scenes from Germanic and Nordic mythology. This particular painting is inspired by the epic saga "Friðþjófs saga hins frœkna," which translates to "The Saga of Frithiof the Bold," a legendary saga from Iceland that dates back to the 14th century. The saga narrates the story of the hero Frithiof, a strong and noble warrior, and his love for Ingeborg, the daughter of King Bele.

In Leeke's depiction, Frithiof is presented at the court of King Ring, who is Ingeborg's husband after she is married off against her will. The painting captures a moment of dramatic tension as Frithiof, who is deeply in love with Ingeborg, must navigate the complexities of honor and forbidden love. Leeke's work is characterized by its romantic style, with a strong emphasis on emotion and the use of rich, vibrant colors that bring the legendary characters to life.

The painting is a testament to the 19th-century fascination with medieval folklore and legends, which was part of a broader cultural movement known as Romantic Nationalism. This movement saw artists, composers, and writers draw inspiration from their country's past and folklore to create works that fostered a sense of national identity and pride.

Ferdinand Leeke's "Frithiof at the Court of King Ring" is not only an example of his artistic skill but also reflects the period's interest in mythological subjects and the revival of Nordic sagas. The painting contributes to the visual interpretation of these sagas, which have been a source of inspiration for various forms of art, literature, and music throughout history. While the exact date of the painting's creation is not well-documented, it remains a significant piece within Leeke's body of work and the genre of mythological art.
