Grand Illumination Woman
Item # 515L
A very special Christmas tradition in Williamsburg each year is the Grand Illumination. In the crisp winter night air, a giant bonfire on the Palace Green draws townspeople and visitors alike to its warmth. They await with great anticipation the sharp clap of a volley from the artillery, which signals the lighting of candles in windows all over town. The roll of drums, piping of flutes and sounds of muskets begin a night of rejoicing filled with music and merriment. Stroll the Duke of Gloucester Street to see the Capitol by candlelight, listen to songs of the season sung under the flickering light from the tall cressets, and be part of a Colonial celebration. The Grand Illumination is a special way to start the Christmas season.
