"Weihnachts-Abend" (Christmas Eve) is a wood engraving created by Adrian Ludwig Richter in 1849. This image depicts a family gathered around a Christmas Eve table with a Christmas tree in the background. The engraving is part of a larger collection titled _Alte und neue Kinderlieder, Fabeln, Sprüche und Räthsel_ (Old and New Children's Songs, Fables, Sayings and Riddles) published by Gustav Mayer in 1849. This scene is characteristic of German Christmas traditions and provides a glimpse into 19th-century German family life. The engraving is in the collection of the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City.
