The three kings or wise men (Caspar, Melchior, and Balthasar) follow the Star of Bethlehem bearing gifts for the infant Jesus, passing German soldiers round a fire on their way. Rather than the traditional offerings of gold, frankincense, and myrrh, one king carries a box of Leibniz cookies. One king raises the star before them, giving the scene a stage-set quality. From a series of war advertising cards for Bahlsens Leibniz Cookies. Illustration by HDiez.
