Midsummer

Who Do You Think You Are magazine asked me to illustrate Midsummer for a feature that mentions ‘the lord and lady of misrule’ and explores a custom that dates back many centuries: “Two local people (often apprentices) were chosen to preside over the anarchy and merry-making, and for a day the world was turned upside-down”.
