Poster with an illustration from Lasse-little in the garden, one of Elsa Beskow's many beloved children's books from the year 1923. Two young women representing yellow and purple plums sit in a plum tree and throw down fruit.
Excerpt from the story about the motif:
There sat the Misses Plommon and waved.
»Come here and taste our plums!» they shouted.
»Mine are juicy, big and blue,
hers are yellow, they are so ugly,
here September, look here you will get!» sang the one.
"Don't believe her, Lasse, listen,
just look at mine, ripe and beautiful,
you can't get sweeter plums,' sang the other.
"Thank you very much, but I promised mother
not to eat the plum yet», said Lars.
Elsa Beskow was a well-known and much-loved Swedish author and illustrator who wrote and illustrated over 40 books that have become classics in Swedish children's literature. Lasse-little in the garden is part of a long series of stories in which Beskow depicts children's adventures in nature, with a mixture of realism and fantasy.
Similar to many of her other works, this work is filled with detailed and beautiful illustrations that complement the poetic text. The theme revolves around the joy of discovery and the child's relationship to nature, something that was consistent in Beskow's work. Through Lasse's adventure, the reader learns about the garden's various plants and animals, while the book conveys important values such as respect for nature and an understanding of its cycles.

The delivery time is normally 1-3 working days within the Nordic region, 2-5 to the rest of Europe and 3-8 working days in other parts of the world. As for canvas paintings, we make them by hand in our factory in Sweden.
The canvas needs to dry before we stretch them on a wooden frame and send them to you. The delivery time for a canvas painting is therefore approximately 7 working days within the Nordic countries, slightly longer to other countries.
