This 1862 photograph, titled "Portret van twee meisjes, waarvan één staand met boek in de hand en één knielend op een bidstoel," by Hermann Selle, captures two young girls in a studio setting. The standing girl holds a book, perhaps a religious text, while the seated girl rests her arms on a prayer kneeler. The formal pose and the inclusion of a book and prayer kneeler suggest a focus on religious practice, while the studio backdrop and the girls’ attire point towards middle-class Victorian values.
