Zorn painted the scene after sunset in June and July 1897, working fast in the long summer twilight to hold the light he wanted.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\u003cp\u003eHe had returned to his native Dalarna the year before and thrown himself into preserving the region's folk culture — he had just given the village of Mora a new maypole of its own.
