This photograph by Dutch photographer Willem Carel van der Kop, taken after 1901, depicts four women, including two mothers holding infants, in a domestic setting. The scene, likely captured in the Netherlands, portrays a glimpse into upper-class life at the turn of the 20th century. The women are all dressed in formal attire, and the image, likely a family portrait, demonstrates the importance of social class and domesticity during this time. The presence of two maids, one serving tea and the other attending to a baby's cradle, further highlights the social stratification within this household. "Twee vrouwen met baby's in doopjurken op schoot, op de achtergrond twee dienstbodes met theepot en naaimand" is a unique snapshot into domestic life and a visual representation of social hierarchy within a wealthy Dutch family.
