Description Whoah! That was a long hiatus. Too long.

This was my absolute favorite Kalevala rune to illustrate.

Rune XLVII.

"When the golden Moon had vanished,
And the silver Sun had hidden
In the iron-banded caverns,
Louhi stole the fire from Northland,
From the regions of Wainola,
Left the mansions cold and cheerless,
And the cabins full of darkness."

This looks so beautiful even though the story behind it is scary.
I hope it has a happy end.

It has a relatively happy ending. I mean it's a really dark poem-y book.

Thanks for the comment!

You are very welcome...

So it's happy enough for a dark poem... I gues that is enough for me

So many expressive lines. Are you a fan of Ivan Bilibin or Aubrey Beardsley by any chance?

I'm not terribly familiar with those artists. But I did a quick Google search and I must say that I could most definitely become a fan of them.

Many thanks for the nice comment, fave and watch! I really appreciate it.

Not a problem. I hope that Bilibin and Beardsley can inspire you!
