"De nieuwe Sint Nicolaas-prent," a wood-engraving, shows a depiction of Saint Nicholas on horseback, with an accompanying figure. The image is framed by ornate floral borders. This 18th-century print, created by the workshop of Jacobus van Egmont, was likely intended for children and reflects the Dutch tradition of celebrating Sinterklaas. The image is currently part of the Rijksmuseum collection in Amsterdam, and its detailed composition and illustrative style highlight the artistic traditions of the period.
