80/6112 Ephemera Epiphany paper crown

- With various sm. repairs and strengthened spots on verso.

= An extremely rare surviving copy of a paper crown (one copy traced in the Museum van Gijn, Dordrecht). Buijnsters, Paper Toys, p.115 (mentioning the copy in this auction) and p.22: "Efemere gebruiksstukken als koningskronen zijn uiteraard slechts bij hoge uitzondering bewaard gebleven". On laid paper with part of a watermark, probably a 'Pro Patria' watermark. Cf. the article by Martin Royalton Kisch in the Print Quarterly vol. I, issue no.I (March 1984) depicting the sheet in this auction. These paper crowns were worn on the occasion of Epiphany, i.a. during a festive meal with a role playing game (i.a. painted by Jacob Jordaens). One of the earliest or the earliest depictions of these paper crowns can be found in the paintings of Pieter Brueghel de Oude, i.a. in 'The Gloomy Day' and "Fight between Carnival and Lent' (in the lower left corner). In both of these paintings the crown is worn by a child. SEE ILLUSTRATION PLATE CXI.
