Couple with child, steel plate, maker: Dirk Jurriaan Sluyter (signed by artist), after design by Hendrik Jacobus Scholten, publisher: Kraay, Gebroeders, 1834 - c. 1870, metal, inorganic material, steel (alloy), steel engraving, height 173 mm x width 120 mm, A rectangular engraving shows a seated man and woman leaning toward a baby on the woman's lap, the man holding the baby's hand while both adults look at the child. The woman wears a flowing dress and has hair parted and smoothed back; the man wears a jacket and has facial hair. The figures sit on ornate chairs with carved backs and a draped curtain is visible behind them. A framed oval portrait hangs on the wall to the right above a cushioned piece of furniture. A round basket or footstool sits in front of the figures at floor level and a small box is beneath the woman's skirt. The engraving is set within a worn and stained paper mount showing scratches and smudges, and there is a handwritten label in dark ink at the bottom right of the mount.
