In private collection. My interpretation is, that Marjatta of Kalevala (a remarkable female character in the national epic of Finland, Kalevala) was the first vegetarian of Finland. In the painting you can find the symbols of vegetarism, a cow and a berry - cowberry. Marjatta chose a berry instead of cow, and lost her family and community.
