EDITORS COMMENTS
In this whimsical and humorous print from 1887, we see three mischievous trolls gleefully laughing at a fox dressed up as a priest. The scene is set in the mystical world of Scandinavian folklore, where supernatural beings such as trolls are said to roam the land.
The trolls, with their exaggerated features and comical expressions, seem to find great amusement in the sight of the fox attempting to pass off as a holy figure. The fox, on the other hand, looks slightly embarrassed but also determined to play along with the joke.
This image captures a moment of lightheartedness and absurdity, reminding us that even mythical creatures can have a sense of humor. It also reflects themes of trickery and deception often found in folklore tales involving creatures like trolls and shape-shifting animals.
The detailed artwork and vibrant colors bring this fantastical scene to life, transporting viewers back to a time when myths and legends were an integral part of everyday life in Scandinavia. It serves as a reminder that laughter has no boundaries – not even between trolls and cleverly disguised foxes.
