The illustration refers to the famous novel of Selma Lagerlöf (Sweden, 1858-1940)
"The book is about a young lad, Nils Holgersson, whose "chief delight was
to eat and sleep, and after that he liked best to make mischief". He
takes great delight in hurting the animals in his family farm. Nils
captures a tomte
in a net while his family is at church and have left him home to
memorize chapters from the Bible. The tomte proposes to Nils that if
Nils frees him, the tomte will give him a huge gold coin. Nils rejects
the offer and the tomte turns Nils into a tomte, which leaves him
shrunken and able to talk with animals, who are thrilled to see the boy
reduced to their size and are angry and hungry for revenge. While this
is happening, wild geese
are flying over the farm on one of their migrations, and a white farm
goose attempts to join the wild ones. In an attempt to salvage something
before his family returns, Nils holds on to the bird's neck as it
successfully takes off and joins the wild birds." (wikipedia)
