It is a landscape painting, but can also be regarded as a portrait painting, since the artist's wife, Agnes Slott-Møller, certainly is the seated woman looking out over the Vejle Fjord on Midsummer night.
Det er et landskabsmaleri, men kan også betragtes som et portrætmaleri, da kunstnerens hustru Agnes Slott-Møller sikkert er den rygvendte kvinde der sidder og kigger ud over Vejle Fjord Sankt Hans aften.
