Bonfire in Midsummer 1879

Légende

This 19th century illustration shows a Bonfire in Midsummer in 1879. Midsummer is also known as St. John's Day, and the celebration coincides with and focuses on the summer solstice. It is mostly a northern European festival, and the festivities usually take place between June 21 and June 25. It was originally a pagan holiday, but it became, in Christianity, associated with the birth of St. John the Baptist.
