This black and white lithograph by Gustave Joseph Biot, titled "Moeder houdt een spiegel op voor het kind op schoot," depicts a mother holding a mirror up to a baby sitting on her lap. The baby gazes intently at the mirror, while a second, older child, looks on. Created in 1862, this print, now in the Rijksmuseum, captures a tender and intimate moment of family interaction. The simple yet evocative composition emphasizes the importance of the mother-child bond and the exploration of self-discovery through reflection.
