Lars Jansson was a Finnish artist and the younger brother of beloved children's author Tove Jansson. He is known for his contributions to the Moomin universe and his role as a father to Sophia Jansson. Despite his loving nature, Lars faced significant challenges, including his struggles with mental health and sexuality, which were compounded by the societal norms of mid-20th century Finland. His life and the impact of his decisions on his family are poignantly examined in Sophia Jansson's debut book 'Tre öar. Mamma, pappa och jag.'
