"Driekoningenbriefjes" is a colorful print created by Brepols & Dierckx zoon between 1833 and 1911. It depicts a series of small, illustrated scenes of various figures on horseback, each accompanied by a verse in Dutch and French. The print is a classic example of "Driekoningenbriefjes," a type of Dutch folk art popular in the 19th century. These prints were often used as decorations for the Epiphany celebration, with children drawing and cutting out the figures and presenting them as gifts. This particular print is now part of the Rijksmuseum collection.
