This 19th-century Dutch print by A. Robyn, titled "Ziet bisschop Sint Niklaas, ô kindren hier te paard!", depicts Saint Nicholas riding a horse through a bustling street. Children line up to greet him, holding out their hands in anticipation. The artwork, now housed at the Rijksmuseum, is a lively portrayal of the traditional Dutch celebration of Saint Nicholas Day, capturing the joy and anticipation of the event. The brightly colored print features a charming scene of children interacting with the saint, symbolizing the connection between the figure of Saint Nicholas and the generous spirit of giving.
