The story behind the motif
Canvas with the painting I am so hungry that my guts are howling, said the wolf by Theodor Kittelsen from 1900. The motif shows the boy Askeladden who meets a wolf in a dark forest late at night. The picture is an illustration to the Norwegian fairy tale Risen som ikke hadde noe hjerte på seg .
Theodor Kittelsen is a Norwegian artist who, like the Swedish John Bauer, is known for his fairytale motifs with goblins and princesses. His works are still iconic in many Nordic homes, but even though he is celebrated as a national artist in Norway, he is hardly known outside of Scandinavia.
