This altarpiece in Teuva Church is Tove Jansson’s only sacred work. The altarpiece is painted “al secco” directly on the wall of the church while it was under construction, on a dry surface smoothed with lime plaster. What makes this altarpiece truly exceptional is not only its creator but also its orientation. Unlike traditional altarpieces that are mounted vertically, Jansson’s work is painted horizontally, making it a rare sight in churches. The painting’s subject matter is the parable of the five wise and five foolish virgins from the Gospel of Matthew, depicted with stunning detail and vivid colours.
