Halldór Pétursson. Illustrations. Writing by Indrið G. Þorsteinsson.
Most nations have artists whose works in the fields of art or music have earned them a special place in the hearts of their people. The people have made their works their own, considered them part of their environment and life, taken them for granted.
Such are the works of Halldór Pétursson. He was an artist for us all. Halldór drew the boy, the horse, the dog, painted the countryside, the mountains and the officials, and created unforgettable caricatures of his contemporaries.
Halldór's work is a part of everyday life. His name is dear to everyone.
This book shows only a fragment of a large number of stories that have not yet been published. This fragment is a true example of what made Halldór Pétursson a friend and acquaintance of the entire nation. (Cover text)
