"Den bortrövade ormen" (The Stolen Serpent) is a 1931 painting by Swedish artist Nils Dardel. The artwork features three bright blue birds with orange beaks perched on a branch, their beaks all hooked into a green serpent winding down towards a nude female figure seated on a green hillside. The painting exemplifies Dardel's unique style, a blend of Expressionism and Surrealism, and is known for its vivid colors and whimsical imagery.
