#68 Bad date
“Bad date” sets a quietly comic scene on the worn façade of an old house, where everyday life spills out into the yard. Sun-faded plaster, a patch of exposed brick, and uneven window frames give the building a lived-in character, while flower boxes and lace curtains hint at careful pride beneath the cracks. Up above,…

#9 Beauty and the beast
A poised figure meets the viewer’s gaze with a theatrical twist: a dark, animal-like mask and curled moustache are painted over an otherwise elegant face. Soft curls, a pearl necklace, and a pale wrap suggest refinement, yet the playful “beast” overlay turns glamour into sly performance. The result is a striking piece of visual storytelling…

#25 The ABC’s of beauty
Alphabet blocks crowd the frame, their worn letters and tiny animal motifs forming a playful grid that feels half nursery, half gallery wall. Between them, two cropped female faces emerge like a collage—one looking forward with a carefully made-up eye and coral lips, the other turned in profile, her glossy lipstick and long lashes catching…

#41 Make a joyful noise
Laughter and music mingle in this playful collage, where a prim parlor scene is interrupted by delightfully unexpected faces. An elegant keyboard sits to the right, its keys ready for a hymn, a dance tune, or a mischievous riff—perfect for the post title “Make a joyful noise.” The carefully rendered clothing and furnishings evoke an…

#11 The Courtyard of the Old Residency in Muni
Weathered plaster, steep slate roofs, and a tight ring of windows frame the courtyard of the Old Residency in Muni, creating the enclosed calm of a place designed for both ceremony and daily administration. At the center, a small turreted bay rises like a watchful marker, while dormers and chimneys punctuate the roofline with a…

#27 Shelter in Fournes
Set against the quiet backdrop suggested by the title, “Shelter in Fournes” draws the eye to a modest cluster of buildings whose steep, tiled roofs dominate the scene. The central structure rises like a tower behind a lower workshop-like wing, creating a sense of layered space and practical design. Soft, earthy coloring and careful linework…

#43 Castle Battlements
A quiet winter scene unfolds around a stout, battlement-like structure crowned with a steep roof and small spire, its dark walls softened by deep snowdrifts. The artist washes the sky in warm sunset tones—amber, rose, and pale gold—so the cold foreground feels almost luminous by contrast. In the distance, low hills or mountains sit under…

#6 The Old Troll of Big Mountain, circa 1910s
Between tawny tree trunks and curling vines, a hulking troll stoops into view, all shaggy beard and heavy-lidded stare, his patched garments hanging from a broad frame. One hand grips a simple axe while the other dangles long, root-like strands, as if he has been tugging at the forest itself. The ground is strewn with…

#22 Leap the Elk and Little Princess Cottongrass, 1913
Under a slim crescent moon, an elk moves with deliberate grace across an open patch of ground, its long legs stretched mid-step as if pacing the edge of a story. Perched upright on the animal’s back is a small, crowned figure—“Little Princess Cottongrass”—rendered with an enchanting stillness that makes the scene feel both intimate and…

#38 Bland Tomtar och Troll-5, 1915
Under the title “Bland Tomtar och Troll-5, 1915,” a dreamlike woodland scene unfolds in a wash of deep greens and dusk tones. A pale, golden-haired figure in a flowing white dress stands close to a companion dressed in vivid red, both lifting their hands as if bracing against a sudden downpour. Above them, the sky…
