"Moeder en dochter van de Evangelische Broedergemeente" ("Mother and Daughter of the Evangelical Brethren Congregation") is an 1803 hand-colored etching by J. Enklaar, which depicts a young woman playing a harpsichord while an older woman reads music. The artwork portrays a domestic scene within the context of religious practice and highlights the importance of music in their lives. The detailed depiction of the harpsichord and the women's attire reflects the artistic style of the early 19th century, blending realism with a touch of idealized representation. This piece offers a glimpse into the social and cultural life of the Evangelical Brethren community during that period.
