Juhana RäsänenThis crude but fascinating figure is a medieval fresco-secco from Nauvo (Nagu) 15th century church. Also known as "Nagu-troll", it represents a siren, who lures sailors into the abyss, a theme which certainly resonated with the archipelago inhabitants those days. Its simple style suggests it is a so-called "builder figure", ie made by the church-builders themselves rather than a professional artist.
