"Here is a piece of a troll herb which nobody else but me can find" is an illustration by Swedish artist John Bauer, created in 1912. The artwork depicts a young boy encountering a massive, white-haired troll woman in a forest setting. The scene is rendered in a romanticized and symbolic style, characteristic of Bauer’s illustrative work, which often featured mystical and fantastical elements of Swedish folklore. The use of vibrant colors and detailed brushstrokes contribute to the dreamlike quality of the scene, drawing viewers into the enchanting world of Swedish mythology. This illustration is a prime example of the artistic movement known as "National Romanticism," which emphasized traditional themes and motifs of Swedish culture.
