Her family, role of the Swedish-speaking minority of Finland, was an artistic i: her father, Viktor Jansson, was a sculptor, and her female parent, Signe Hammarsten-Jansson, was a Swedish-born graphic designer and illustrator. Tove's siblings also became artists: Per Olov Jansson became a photographer and Lars Jansson an author and cartoonist. Whilst their domicile was in Helsinki, the family unit spent many of their summers in a rented cottage on an isle near Porvoo, 50 km (31 miles) east of Helsinki;^[four] among other things, the Söderskär Lighthouse island off Porvoo in the Gulf of Finland has served equally an of import source of inspiration for her later literature (see Moominpappa at Sea).^[5]

Jansson went to Läroverket för gossar och flickor in Helsinki and then studied at University Higher of Arts, Crafts and Design, in Stockholm in 1930–1933, the Graphic School of the Finnish Academy of Fine Arts in 1933–1937, and finally at L'École d'Adrien Holy and L'École des Beaux-Arts in Paris in 1938.

Work [edit]

Moomins [edit]

Comprehend of Finn Family Moomintroll (1948)

Jansson is principally known as the author of the Moomin books. Jansson created the Moomins, a family unit of trolls who are white, round and smooth in advent, with large snouts that make them vaguely resemble hippopotamuses.

The first Moomin volume, The Moomins and the Peachy Inundation, was written in 1945. Although the primary characters are Moominmamma and Moomintroll, most of the main characters of later on stories were only introduced in the next volume, and so The Moomins and the Great Flood is frequently considered a forerunner to the chief serial. The book was not a success, simply the side by side 2 installments in the Moomin series, Comet in Moominland (1946) and Finn Family unit Moomintroll (1948), brought Jansson some fame. The original title of Finn Family Moomintroll, Trollkarlens Hatt , translates as The Wizard'southward Hat.

The manner of the Moomin books changed as time went by. The first books, written starting just after the 2d World State of war, up to Moominland Midwinter (1957), are risk stories that include floods, comets and supernatural events. The Moomins and the Keen Flood deals with Moominmamma and Moomintroll's flying through a dark and scary forest, where they encounter diverse dangers. In Comet in Moominland, a comet nearly destroys the Moominvalley (some critics take considered this an allegory of nuclear weapons^[9]). Finn Family unit Moomintroll deals with adventures brought on past the discovery of a magician's hat. The Exploits of Moominpappa (1950) tells the story of Moominpappa's adventurous youth and cheerfully parodies the genre of memoir. Finally, Moominsummer Madness (1955) pokes fun at the world of the theatre: the Moomins explore an empty theatre and perform Moominpappa's pompous hexametric melodrama.

In improver to the Moomin novels and short stories, Tove Jansson also wrote and illustrated 4 original and popular motion picture books: The Book well-nigh Moomin, Mymble and Footling My (1952), Who will Comfort Toffle? (1960), The Unsafe Journey (1977) and An Unwanted Guest (1980). Every bit the Moomins' fame grew, two of the original novels, Comet in Moominland and The Exploits of Moominpappa, were revised by Jansson and republished.

Critics accept interpreted various Moomin characters every bit existence inspired past real people, especially members of the writer'southward family, and Jansson spoke in interviews well-nigh the backgrounds of, and possible models for, her characters.^[7]

Pietilä's personality inspired the character Also-Ticky in Moominland Midwinter ^{[4] [7]} and Moomintroll and Little My have been seen as psychological cocky-portraits of the artist.^{[4] [seven]} Jansson referred to Moomintroll every bit her change-ego.^[10]

The Moomins, generally speaking, chronicle strongly to Jansson's own family – they were maverick and lived close to nature. Jansson remained shut to her mother until her mother's death in 1970; even later Tove had get an adult, the two often traveled together, and during her final years Signe also lived with Tove part-time.^[seven] Moominpappa and Moominmamma are often seen every bit portraits of Jansson'southward parents.^{[4] [vii] [10] [11]}

Other writing [edit]

After Moominvalley in November Tove Jansson stopped writing about Moomins and started writing for adults. Jansson's first foray exterior children's literature was Bildhuggarens dotter [sv] (Sculptor's Daughter), a semi-autobiographical novel published in 1968. After that, she wrote five more novels, including Sommarboken (The Summer Book) and v collections of brusque stories. The Summer Book is the best known of her adult fiction translated into English language. It is a piece of work of charm, subtlety and simplicity, describing the summer stay on an island of a immature girl and her grandmother. The daughter is modelled on her niece, Sophia Jansson; the girl's father on Sophia's father, Lars Jansson; and the grandmother on Tove's mother Signe.^[3]

Wartime satire in Garm magazine [edit]

Cover of Garm magazine, October 1944, lampooning Adolf Hitler as "self-important and comic"^[12]

Tove Jansson worked every bit an illustrator and cartoonist for the Swedish-language satirical magazine Garm from the 1930s to 1953.^[13] 1 of her political cartoons achieved a brief international fame: she drew Adolf Hitler as a crying baby in diapers, surrounded by Neville Chamberlain and other great European leaders, who tried to calm the babe down by giving it slices of cake – Austria, Poland, Czechoslovakia, etc. In the Second Earth State of war, during which Finland fought against the Soviet Union, part of the fourth dimension cooperating with Nazi Germany,^[fourteen] her cover illustrations for Garm lampooned both Hitler and Joseph Stalin: in one, Stalin draws his sword from his impressively long scabbard, only to find it absurdly brusk; in some other, multiple Hitlers ransack a house, carrying away food and artworks. In The Spectator 's view, Jansson made Hitler a preposterous little figure, cocky-important and comic.^[12]

Comic strip creative person [edit]

Jansson likewise produced illustrations during this period for the Christmas magazines Julen and Friction match (just as her female parent had earlier) every bit well as several smaller productions. Her earliest comic strips were created for productions including Lunkentus ( Prickinas och Fabians äventyr , 1929), Vårbrodd ( Fotbollen som Flög till Himlen ', 1930), and Allas Krönika ( Palle och Göran gå till sjöss , 1933).^[15]

The figure of the Moomintroll appeared start in Jansson's political cartoons, where information technology was used as a signature character nearly the artist'due south proper name. This "Proto-Moomin", then chosen Snork or Niisku,^[vii] was sparse and ugly, with a long, narrow nose and devilish tail. Jansson said that she had designed the Moomins in her youth: afterwards she lost a philosophical quarrel nigh Immanuel Kant with i of her brothers, she drew "the ugliest creature imaginable" on the wall of their outhouse and wrote under it "Kant". This Moomin later gained weight and a more than pleasant advent, just in the commencement Moomin book The Moomins and the Corking Flood (originally Småtrollen och den stora översvämningen ), the Immanuel-Kant-Moomin is still perceptible. The proper name Moomin comes from Tove Jansson's uncle, Einar Hammarsten: when she was studying in Stockholm and living with her Swedish relatives, her uncle tried to stop her pilfering food by telling her that a "Moomintroll" lived in the kitchen cupboard and breathed cold air downwardly people's necks.^[vii]

Jansson in 1956 with moomintroll dolls made by Atelier Fauni

In 1952, after Comet in Moominland and Finn Family Moomintroll had been translated into English, a British publisher asked if Tove Jansson would be interested in cartoon comic strips about the Moomins. Jansson had already drawn a long Moomin comic risk, Mumintrollet och jordens undergång (Moomintroll and the Stop of the World), based loosely on Comet in Moominland, for the Swedish-language newspaper Ny Tid , and she accustomed the offer. The comic strip Moomintroll, started in 1954 in the London Evening News. Tove Jansson drew 21 long Moomin stories from 1954 to 1959, writing them at first by herself then with her blood brother Lars Jansson. She eventually gave the strip upward because the daily piece of work of a comic artist did non leave her fourth dimension to write books and paint, just Lars took over the strip and continued it until 1975.

The serial was published in book form in Swedish; books 1 to 6 have been published in English, Moomin: The Complete Tove Jansson Comic Strip.

Painter and illustrator [edit]

Although she became known first and foremost equally an writer, Tove Jansson considered her careers as author and painter to exist of equal importance. She painted her whole life, irresolute mode from the classical impressionism of her youth to the highly abstract modernist style of her afterward years. Jansson displayed a number of artworks in exhibitions during the 1930s and early 1940s, and her first solo exhibition was held in 1943. Despite by and large positive reviews, criticism induced Jansson to refine her style such that in her 1955 solo exhibition her style had become less overloaded in terms of detail and content. Betwixt 1960 and 1970 Jansson held five more solo exhibitions.^[7]

Jansson too created a serial of commissioned murals and public works throughout her career, which may still exist viewed in their original locations. These works of Jansson'southward included:

• The canteen at the Strömberg factory at Pitäjänmäki , Helsinki (1945)^[7]
• The Aurora Children's Hospital in Helsinki^[4]
• The Kaupunginkellari restaurant of Helsinki City Hall^[4] – Transferred in 1974 to Helsinki Swedish-language Adult Didactics Middle "Workers' Institute" Arbis and in 2022 to a permanent Jansson exhibition at Helsinki Art Museum^[16]

• The Wise and Foolish Virgins altarpiece in Teuva Church building (1954)^[7]
• A number of fairy-tale murals in schools and kindergartens including the kindergarten in Pori (1984)^[7]

In addition to providing the illustrations for her ain Moomin books, Jansson also illustrated Swedish translations of classics such every bit J. R. R. Tolkien's The Hobbit ^[17] and Lewis Carroll's The Hunting of the Snark ^[18] and Alice's Adventures in Wonderland ^[nineteen] (some used later in Finnish translations as well). She also illustrated her tardily work, The Summer Book (1972).

Personal life [edit]

Jansson had several male lovers, including the political philosopher Atos Wirtanen, who was the inspiration for the Moomin character Snufkin. However, she eventually "went over to the spook side" as she put it—a coded expression for homosexuality^{[20] [21] [22] [23]}—and adult a clandestine honey affair with the married theater director Vivica Bandler.^[24]

In 1956 Jansson met her lifelong partner, Tuulikki Pietilä – or "Tooti", every bit she was known. In Helsinki they lived separately, in neighbouring blocks, visiting each other privately through an cranium passageway. In the 1960s, they built a house on a tiny uninhabited island in the Gulf of Republic of finland, 100 kilometres (62 mi) from Helsinki, where they would escape for the summer months.^[25] Jansson'south and Pietilä's travels and summers spent together on the Klovharu island in Pellinki have been captured on several hours of film, shot by Pietilä. Several documentaries take been made of this footage, the latest beingness Haru, yksinäinen saari (Haru, the lonely island) (1998)^[26] and Tove ja Tooti Euroopassa (Tove and Tooti in Europe) (2004).^[27] Information technology is speculated that the grapheme Too-ticky, a wise human who wears a cherry striped shirt and carries a briefcase, was inspired by Pietilä.^[24]
