- Comment: "Height: 25 mm (0.98 in). Width: 25 mm (0.98 in)." I'm assuming this is not correct- do we know the real dimensions? I absolutely adore this style, and while this is a wonderful painting, it's a shame it doesn't have any trolls in it. J Milburn (talk) 17:09, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
- J Milburn it is 25 cm of course. (<-See detail on left corner.) Fixed now. About the missing trolls... 1,356 × 1,267 pixels.- see here the amount of pix -> Hafspajen (talk) 19:02, 18 June 2014 (UTC)
- Support Good quality scan. Brings back childhood memories... I suppose the size is a typo, should be 25 cm, not mm. --Janke | Talk 17:35, 18 June 2014 (UTC)

- Support – One of Sweden's most iconic pictures. All of the originals for "About gnomes and trolls" are approximately 20–25 cm, mostly squares so it's safe to assume that 25 cm by 25 cm is the correct size.
