Midsummer Party Photographic print, anonymous, 1901–1905 Nordic Museum, Stockholm |

|
In a studio scene, five
road workers mark Midsummer with a modest celebration. Dressed in
their work clothes and wearing hats, they gather around a small
table—some seated on wooden chairs—while a birch tree stands in the
background. They toast and smoke together, drinking either from
bottles or glasses, during a pause from building the road between
Lima and Rörbäcksnäs, Dalarna County, Sweden, completed between 1901 and 1905. |
