Over het schilderij

The presents that the children are carrying have probably been handed to them by the nun standing by the lighted Christmas tree inside the doorway. The two prosperously dressed women to the right may be benefactors. Christmas customs in Germany vary according to the area and the differing Christian traditions of the local people. These children are evidently in a Catholic area, and will think of their presents as coming from the Christ Child. Protestant children would receive presents from the Weihnachtsman, the equivalent of the British Father Christmas.
