EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "Poor little bear!" is a masterpiece created by the talented artist John Bauer in 1912. The artwork, now part of a private collection, showcases Bauer's exceptional skill in capturing the essence of Swedish folklore and mythology. In this enchanting scene, we are transported into a world filled with gnomes, trolls, and other mythical creatures from Norse mythology. The symbolism embedded within the painting invites us to delve deeper into the realm of fairy tales and legends. The central focus of the image is a forlorn bear who appears lost and vulnerable amidst his surroundings. Bauer's use of watercolour and tempera on paper adds depth and texture to every stroke, evoking an emotional response from viewers. Bauer was renowned for his ability to bring stories to life through art. His illustrations often accompanied popular books such as "Tuvstarr" (Among Gnomes and Trolls), where he beautifully depicted scenes inspired by Germanic mythology. As we gaze upon this exquisite piece, we are reminded of the power that allegory and literature hold in shaping our understanding of ancient traditions. This photograph print serves as both an homage to Bauer's artistic brilliance as well as an invitation for us to explore the rich tapestry woven by centuries-old tales passed down through generations.
