This woodcut print, *Christuskind timmert een hek* (Christ Child Carpentry a Fence) by Christoffel van (II) Sichem, depicts a scene where a young Christ Child is hammering a fence. Surrounding him are other figures, likely representing a family. This artwork, dating back to 1617, is part of a series of prints depicting the daily life of Christ, a popular theme for the era. Its small size and intricate details suggest a close examination, highlighting the importance of personal faith and the connection of divine elements to daily life in 17th-century Dutch culture.
