Poster with John Bauer's painting The Magic Herb from 1912. A troll with long, green hair hands a magic herb to the boy in the forest.
On the back of the original painting is the text: " Here you will get a piece of a magic herb, which (no one) but I can look for". The picture was published with the story The Boy Who Never Was Afraid by Alfred Smedberg in Among Elves and Goblins in 1912.
The story is about a boy who sets out to find the croft's only dairy cow that the goblins have taken. Undaunted, he managed to get on good terms with the horrible creatures he encountered in the forest, and with their help he managed to free the cow.
John Bauer is known for his fairy tale motifs with trolls and princesses and he has had a great influence on Swedish folklore and storytelling.
Artist: John Bauer | Created: 1912.

We deliver worldwide and always offer free shipping! Depending on which country you are shipping to, the delivery may mean that certain customs fees and taxes are added - there is no duty or tax on deliveries within, for example, the EU, USA or Norway.
The delivery time is normally 1-3 working days within the Nordic region, 2-5 to the rest of Europe and 3-8 working days in other parts of the world. As for canvas paintings, we make them by hand in our factory in Sweden.
The canvas needs to dry before we stretch them on a wooden frame and send them to you. The delivery time for a canvas painting is therefore approximately 7 working days within the Nordic countries, slightly longer to other countries.
If you order from Norway, your order will be delivered with Fedex, to Sweden and other parts of the world with DHL. Your package is normally delivered to your nearest agent!
