June 17 - Lady of the Mountain
Lady of the Mountain
The Lady of the Mountain is a personification of Iceland. In the National Day program at Austurvöllur, an actress will play her role and recite a poem. The Lady of the Mountain is dressed in the Icelandic festival costume for women (skautbúningur), which is stored at the Árbær Museum. She is adorned with an ornamental belt (stokkabelti) featuring vine patterns made of silver and a matching breastpin.
