The Quest for Kalevala page 6
Comment
The Quest for Kalevala is Don Rosa´ s take on Finland´ s 19th century national epic poem Kalevala. A huge hit in Finland for sure, and arguably one of Rosa´ s best efforts. All the original pages once resided in a Finnish collection and were given Finnish lettering.
This particular page depicts a story within a story - a graphic presentation of Kalevala for beginners, as given to Scrooge and Donald. Featuring the wizard hero Väinämöinen, his kantele, the sort-of evil Northern witch Louhi and the magical device Sampo - all you need to enjoy this great story!
