After Copenhagen Cabinetmaker’s Guild Exhibition in 1945, joiner Niels Vodder, who produced Finn Juhl’s furniture, gifted his daughter Kirsten the prototype of a small sofa in 1945. Kirsten Vodder was married to the poet Frank Jæger, whose favorite activity was to lie on the sofa and ponder the events of life. The close friend of the family and illustrator Jørgen Mogensen would spend a lot of time at their house, which eventually inspired the comic strip.
It is worth mentioning that the sofa depicted in the comic strip is a stylized version of the famous Poet sofa rather than the “Little Mother” sofa, although some people have appointed this original “Poet”. It has even been postulated that the “Little Mother” is a unique piece. However, the truth is more likely that there are only very few pieces. No one knows exactly how few were originally produced and no one has ever named the specific model before. Since we already have a Poet, this obviously has to be the “Little Mother”.
