This chromolitho print titled "Harvesting mistletoe - New Year among the Celts" takes us back to the 19th century and offers a glimpse into the ancient Celtic tradition of celebrating the New Year. The image showcases a group of individuals, likely druids or members of the Celtic community, dressed in flowing robes as they gather around a majestic tree adorned with mistletoe. The scene exudes an air of reverence and commemoration as these figures carefully pick and collect mistletoe, symbolizing their connection to nature and their belief in its sacred properties. Mistletoe held great significance for the Celts, representing fertility, protection, and good fortune. This educational card is part of a series that explores New Year celebrations across various cultures throughout history. It serves as a reminder of how traditions evolve over time while still retaining their cultural roots. The intricate details captured in this print allow us to appreciate not only the beauty but also the scientific aspects related to botany and natural history.

It reminds us that even today, amidst our modern celebrations, there is value in honoring ancient customs that connect us with our past and deepen our understanding of who we are.
