Card Single Oslo Troll

"The Troll on Karl Johan Street, Oslo", 1892. The beloved Norwegian artist Theodor Kittelsen (1857-1914) captured, like none other, the secret mystique of trolls and gnomes (nisser) in his fairy-tale drawings and watercolors. Lovable and scary at once, these magical creatures are grotesque, sometimes wildly exaggerated in feature, yet depicted in dreamy natural settings. The illustration on this card is an example of his unique pictorial fancy, known for its eloquent detail and emotional appeal.
