A couple of Dutch winter-scene engravings from the 1600s. HEre, Pieter Brueghel the Elder captures skaters having a great time:
I really enjoy this one, showing two ice-skating owls, one dressed in fancy women’s clothes and the other in more humble men’s clothing. The inscription reads “How well we go together,” as they’re connected by a string with dead mice (!) hanging from it.
Much more here:
