專家說明

This atmospheric etching portrays the procession associated with the celebration of Epiphany, or Twelfth Night, a holiday particularly observed in Holland and inspired by the journey of the Magi following the star. A freely drawn sketch in pen and ink in the Rijksmuseum shows more clearly a group of children following a star lantern attached to the end of a pole.
