John Bauer’s Tomtarna: A man, eyes closed, stumbles forward as a troll guides him through a spectral, moon-washed landscape—‘over roads and paths, over mountains and hills.
"He led him over roads and paths, over mountains and hills. And all the while he slept"
(Anna Wahlenberg “Tomtarna” from “Bland tomtar och troll”)
🎨 John Bauer (1909)

Against a muted, beige-coloured, contoured forest, two trolls are escorting a white clad young woman with long curly blonde hair. She has her hands on her chest and looks martyred. The troll in front is stooped with long grey hair and is wearing a trailing fur cloak, boots with upturned toes and a string of bright red and blue beads around their throat as well as a gold bangle on one wrist. The troll in the rear seems to be looking at the viewer and is swaddled in a fur cloak. This troll is wearing a cone-shaped hat adorned with a single feather and has dangling hoop earrings as well as what seems to be a dark plait showing from one side of the hat. Both trolls have big rounded noses and very hairy hands with claws. They are only slightly darker than the forest in the background. Image by John/Jan Baeur (1882-1918) from Wikimedia Commons.
