Christmas is a time when the Nisse can have his fun. Nisse is said to live in the lofts of old farmhouses and he enjoys to play jokes. Families will leave him a bowl of rice pudding or porridge on Christmas Eve to keep him from playing too many jokes on the family. Usually Nisse is a kind and helpful elf who enjoys to help on the farm and he enjoys being good to the children. (From: The History of Christmas)

I don't know the artist who originally drew the Nisse design, can't find it anywhere - I think it's a Christmas card or Napkin or something like that. - sorry.
