"Twee tegenover elkaar staande meisjes" (Two girls standing opposite each other) is a hand-colored etching by W. Barthautz, dating back to the 1700-1800s. The artwork depicts two young girls in traditional Dutch attire, with the girl on the left pointing at the other girl, perhaps suggesting a playful interaction or a moment of instruction. The detailed depiction of clothing and the use of soft, delicate colors contribute to a charming and intimate portrayal of everyday life in the Netherlands.
