Starting from 1929 Viktor Jansson created several drafts for sculptures picturing young women, one of which is called Convolvulus.

The other sculpture from the same series named Youth (Nuoruus) is situated in Hämeenlinna.

These two sculptures are united by attempt to create images of excellence and clarity through a somehow abstract form.

The model for Kajastus, Convolvulus and Nuoruus was Tove Jansson, the daughter of the sculptor.
