The artwork shows a ceremony on a patio. There's a round pool in the center of the image and a round arch in the background. Sisters of the convent are placed in different locations performing different parts of the ritual. Half of them wear a peacock mask and half of them wear sun-like headpieces. There's a woman in the center on the horse. She wears a blue dress decorated with mosaic-like patterns. The horse is covered with blue patterns and stands still above the water. Two twins are sitting on the floor surrounded by large lilies. Behind them one sister plays a harp and another one is holding two bowls with mysterious light. There's a big mosaic tree in the background with other sisters dancing around it. There are two other sisters on top of the wall waving scarves. The artwork is mostly blue and light green

The image shows a room with tall windows and stairs leading to a bathroom below. There's a woman with red hair reaching towards a dollhouse. The woman is an original character of the commissioner. On the right side from the window there's a wall with decorated arch around it and some paintings hanging on the wall. On the first level there's a bathtub with a man laying in it. The bathtub is partially covered by a divider. The artwork is mostly pink and mint with lots of patterns.

The artwork shows musicians sitting in shallow water in a purple room. First musician plays wooden drums, second one plays erhu, third one plays a flute, fourth one plays a gong. All background musicians wear either pots or plates on their heads. The woman in the center has black hair and plays an instrument inspired by Korean instrument called gayageum. There are three purple goldfish floating above the ground. The wall in the background is decorated with arches with stained glass and there's a big flower pot with purple cornflowers. The room also has some arches with silk fabric hanging on them. The artwork is purple with some green details.

the artwork shows a room with a circle-shaped window and two people standing in the center. The window is decorated with flowers and has a curtain hanging over it. The room has two floors and stairs between them. The bottom part has a pool with the reflection of the room and two separated stairs facing each other. The room is decorated with patterns and tiles. The artwork is mostly lilac and turquoise.

moomin gets stereotyped as cozy pseudo-ghibli fantasy, but much like ghibli itself it's something born from hardship, what with it starting publication at the tail end of WW2 by a queer author who kept her bisexuality a secret to the public, and the earliest books being blatant post-war allegories

you have a right to be angry

Drawing of Little My, a small girl in a red dress, sliding down a hill. She is drawn by Tove Jansson from the Moomin series. The text reads: "WHEN you're angry, then you're angry," thought Little My, peeling her potato with her teeth. "Sometimes you have to be angry. Every little creature has the right to get angry."
