"Rodkappan" (Red Riding Hood) is a watercolor painting by the renowned Swedish artist Carl Larsson, created in 1881. This artwork is one of Larsson's many illustrations that delve into the world of children's fairy tales and folklore, a theme that was recurrent throughout his career. The painting depicts the iconic scene from the classic European fairy tale "Little Red Riding Hood," where the young girl encounters the wolf in the forest.

In "Rodkappan," Larsson captures the innocence and naivety of the titular character, Red Riding Hood, as she is unknowingly engaged in conversation with the cunning wolf, disguised in her grandmother's clothing. The artist's use of watercolor brings a softness and vibrancy to the scene, highlighting the contrast between the girl's bright red cloak and the natural hues of the forest. The composition is carefully crafted to evoke the suspense and tension of the moment, with the wolf's menacing presence looming over the unsuspecting child.

Carl Larsson (1853–1919) is one of Sweden's most beloved artists, known for his watercolors and illustrations that often depicted idyllic scenes of family life, rural settings, and Swedish traditions. His work is characterized by a warm, light-hearted approach, and a distinctive use of color and light. "Rodkappan" is a testament to Larsson's skill in storytelling through visual art and his ability to capture the essence of folk narratives in a single, poignant image.

The painting is not only a reflection of Larsson's artistic talents but also an important piece of cultural history, as it represents the late 19th-century interest in children's literature and the revival of national myths and stories. "Rodkappan" remains an enduring piece of Larsson's oeuvre, showcasing his contribution to the visual interpretation of fairy tales that continue to enchant audiences to this day.
