If you’ve never had the chance to experience it, being in a place where the sun doesn’t set completely in the summer months can be a bit disorienting. Time exists differently; the evening drifts into the wee hours of the morning, and then suddenly the sun is rising up into the sky once again for a new day. It’s an otherworldly and magical experience!
Hafnarfjörður, Iceland - 12:02 am, late June
In the northern parts of Scandinavia, as well as Iceland and Greenland, there is sunlight for 24 hours a day around the time of the summer solstice. This phenomenon led to this region being referred to as “the land of the midnight sun.”
Arnarholl Park, Reykjavik, Iceland - the lowest point of the sun, 11:20 pm, early July.
As a part of our celebration of Midsummer at BreyerFest, we are excited to introduce the penultimate BreyerFest Special Run model – Midnattssol, the Norwegian word for “Midnight Sun.” This handsome model, created on the new Murgese Stallion, mold #824, sculpted by Sarah Minkiewicz-Breunig, is done as a dark bay sabino-frame with blue eyes. This model will be available to our in-person VIP and All-Access ticket holders only.
Stick around on the BreyerFest Blog – we have more coming your way tomorrow!
