English term or phrase: Silhouette lights
It's still a while before the festive seasons starts but I am getting in a lot of manuals for festive lighting already.

one of them that is quite new to me is "silhouette lights'.
i could do a straight translation to Dutch, but I am wondering if there's a specific Dutch term for these?
