Here are some parahelia for you, for Christmas Eve, bringing with them my love and good wishes of the season, whatever you call it. Vädersolstavlan, (The Sun Dog Painting): original by Urban Målare, 1535, this a copy by Jacob Heinrich Elbfas, 1636.
17th century painting of Stockholm, a copy of the so called Vädersolstavlan, depicting a halo display event in 1535. The visible haloes are: 22 ° halo, at upper right (should be centred on the Sun) parhelic circle, large white circle (centred on the zenith: appears 'horizontal' in the sky) parhelia including 2 sundogs, 2 x 120° parhelia and the anthelion (dots on the parhelic circle, resp. nearest to farthest from the Sun) upper tangent arc and possible Parry arc (2 crossing arcs just left of the 22° halo (actually 'above' the 22°, in the sky); not realistically shown) circumzenithal arc, smaller crescent inside the parhelic circle (also centred on the zenith: appears 'horizontal', high in the sky) infralateral arc (bottom right) Note that the whole sky appears strongly tilted in the image: the upper right corner is actually down in the sky (when looking towards the Sun), the zenith is at the center of the circumzenithal arc and parhelic circle.

This beautiful painting is called 'Vädersolstavlan'. It is a painting capturing a sun dog that occurred over Stockholm 20 april 1535. This was painted by Jacob Elbfas. I'm just awestruck with how beautiful this painting is.

Jacob Heinrich Elbfas : Vädersolstavlan (The Sundog Painting), 1636

See alt text for more 👇
Oil-on-panel painting depicting a halo display, an atmospheric optical phenomenon, observed over Stockholm on 20 April 1535. It is named after the sun dogs appearing on the upper right part of the painting. While chiefly noted for being the oldest depiction of Stockholm in colour, it is arguably also the oldest Swedish landscape painting and the oldest depiction of sun dogs. 163 cm × 110 cm (64 in × 43 in) Location: Storkyrkan, Stockholm The original painting, which was produced shortly after the event and traditionally attributed to Urban målare ("Urban [the] Painter"), is lost, and virtually nothing is known about it. However, a copy from 1636 by Jacob Heinrich Elbfas held in Storkyrkan in Stockholm is believed to be an accurate copy and was until recently erroneously thought to be the restored original. It was previously covered by layers of brownish varnish, and the image was hardly discernible until carefully restored and thoroughly documented in 1998–1999. The painting was produced during an important time in Swedish history. The establishment of modern Sweden coincided with the introduction of Protestantism and the break-up with Denmark and the Kalmar Union. The painting was commissioned by the Swedish reformer Olaus Petri, and the resulting controversies between him and King Gustav Vasa and the historical context remained a well-kept secret for centuries. During the 20th century the painting became an icon for the history of Stockholm and it is now frequently displayed whenever the history of the city is commemorated.

Vädersolstavlan - flera "solar" syns över Stockholm. Osäkert när den först målades men den som hänger i Storkyrkan i Stockholm i dag är troligen en kopia från 1600-talet. Det är också troligen den äldsta existerande avbildningen av Stockholm.
