KopperMonday, the first Monday after Epiphany (January 6), is traditionally a day spent lazing around and partying (kopperen means 'to feast', 'drink', 'celebrate'). The oldest reports about Copper Monday date from the first half of the fifteenth century, so before the invention of printing.
Workers from all kinds of trades went door to door on Copper Monday to sing or recite a New Year's greeting to wealthy fellow citizens. They got some money for that.
Workers from the printers' guild accompanied their good wishes with a beautiful rhyming print: the Copper Monday print. This tradition has continued to the present day.
