Tove Jansson, Dancing Woman (Tuulikki?)
Signed Tove ink drawing approx. 15x10.5 cm
Not framed
Gift directly from the artist at Tuulikki Pietilä's exhibition at Halmstad Art Salon (Antikboden), early 1970s.
Tuulikki Pietilä came to Halmstad as a young woman, among other things to help Finnish war children.
She became good friends with the Johansson family, who ran the Art Salon in Halmstad.
Her exhibitions were held there, and Tove often joined her, sitting and drawing as well as sketching and signing in her books that were sold at the exhibitions.
The drawing for the auction was created then.
