Description
While the dala horse has become a favorite symbol of Sweden, dala pigs are also often carved and painted in the same style. A traditional midsummer song called “Små Grodorna” (“Small Frogs”) has a second verse devoted to little pigs:
Små grisarna, små grisarna är lustiga att se;
Små grisarna, små grisarna är lustiga att se.
Båd öron, båd öron, och svansar hava de;
Båd öron, båd öron, och svansar hava de.
Å nöff nöff nöff, å nöff nöff nöff,
å nöff nöff nöff nöff nöff;
Å nöff nöff nöff, å nöff nöff nöff,
å nöff nöff nöff nöff nöff.
Small pigs, small pigs are funny to see;
Small pigs, small pigs are funny to see.
Both ears, both ears and tails have they;
Both ears, both ears and tails have they.
Oh snort snort snort, oh snort snort snort,
(etc.)
Dimensions: 11 x 17 inches
Art is unmatted and unframed.
This is original colored pencil art. The colored pencil has been treated with fixative to reduce wax bloom, the natural rising of wax to the surface of the pigment. However, if the picture seems to have dulled over time, remove the art from the frame and wipe gently with a dry, lint-free cloth. This will remove the wax build-up.
