The engraving, based on an original drawing by TH. Schuler, beautifully depicts this momentous event. In this scene, we witness a joyous gathering filled with Christian fervor and traditional customs. The couple at the center is engrossed in a lively dance, surrounded by fellow revelers engaged in various games and activities.

The celebration takes place against a backdrop of natural elements - trees swaying gently in the breeze and stars twinkling above - creating an enchanting atmosphere that enhances the spiritual significance of Saint John's feast day. This image not only showcases religious devotion but also highlights the rich cultural heritage found within Alsace-Lorraine region.
