OriginalJohn Bauer's illustration for the Swedish annual Among Gnomes and Trolls. Originally designed for use in The Changelings (1913), it shows the princess Bianca Maria between two trolls in a forest; part of the series of illustrations that made Bauer a household name, the pictures shaped perceptions of many fairy tale characters, especially trolls and princesses.
