EDITORS COMMENTS
John Bauer's enchanting watercolor painting, "The Princess and the Trolls," transports us to the mystical realms of Swedish folklore in the early 1910s. This work of art, created by the renowned Swedish painter John Bauer (1882-1918), showcases a young princess in a vibrant forest setting, surrounded by an array of mythical creatures, including trolls and other unusual beings. Bauer, a master of the watercolor medium, expertly employs a rich color palette to bring this fantastical scene to life. The painting is filled with intricate details, from the delicate petals of the flowers to the intricately patterned clothing of the princess and the trolls. The story of "The Princess and the Trolls" is rooted in Swedish mythology and folklore, which Bauer drew upon throughout his career. The painting depicts the princess, dressed in royal attire, standing in a clearing in the forest, surrounded by a group of trolls. Despite their fearsome appearance, the trolls seem to be in awe of the princess, and she appears to be holding a conversation with them. This painting is a testament to Bauer's unique artistic vision and his ability to bring the mythical creatures of Swedish folklore to life. It is a beloved work of heritage art that continues to captivate audiences and inspire artists and writers to this day. The painting, "The Princess and the Trolls," is part of the permanent collection of the Nationalmuseum in Stockholm, Sweden, and is a must-see for anyone interested in the rich cultural heritage of Swedish art and literature.
