The story behind the motif
A classic poster illustrated by Elsa Beskow. The illustration was published in Saga of the year year 1927 and is called November.
Story of the year is a classic picture book by Elsa Beskow from 1927 that deals with the seasons with rhyming text and detailed illustrations. The book depicts how the year passes in home and nature, with verses describing each month, for example "January begins the year, February comes next, March, April has a bud in the hair". It is one of Beskow's best-known books and a popular read-aloud book for children.
In the book it says: Now the storm shakes the bare branches of the trees. Uhi uho — — — The last shriveled leaves he intends to remain in peace. With wadding we stuck our inner windows and strips on. Soon they are painted in neighboring ice flower patterns so icy grey. Although the frost has bitten everything on the fields, it is still thawed, but grandma says that she can feel it in her legs, that soon there will be snow. Now we're going to make a good bonfire, and then I think we'll hear a long and funny story, say, please mother?
Elsa Beskow's fairy tales and illustrations have become classics in Swedish children's literature. She is one of Sweden's most beloved authors and illustrators of all time.
