Would be good if it had cloth type clothes also. Does anyone know where I can get a John Bauer type of troll figure, either made of ceramic or plastic.

I will definately tell more people about this artist. i love the beauty of this picture. the innocence is captured by the princess, but the trolls also have a sense of benevolent and gentle curiosity. this is lovely.

Nice to see him being promoted for the audiences! I'll have to search for his books when visiting Sweden next time. As an anecdote, his "Tuvstarr" picture has been used in music album covers, f.ex. in BIS 1996 release of Jean Sibelius "The Wood-Nymph" recording, and in the rock album "Second Sight" by Danish Culpeper's Orchard from year 1972.

(Also, the translation of Bland tomtar och troll is actually Among Gnomes and Trolls.)

I'm glad to hear the English language link is working on the site now. It's unfortunate there isn't more information about Bauer in English and other languages, his work deserves wider appreciation.
