"December: Sinterklaasavond" is an etching by Dutch artist Jan Caspar Philips, dating from 1736 - 1775. The artwork depicts a scene of a family gathered in a room, possibly celebrating Sinterklaas, a Dutch holiday similar to Christmas. The figures are intricately rendered, highlighting the detail of 18th-century Dutch life and tradition, particularly in the clothing and objects portrayed. This etching is a beautiful example of Philips' work and is now housed in the Rijksmuseum.
