I was wondering where I could find the episode that goes along with this
screenshot. From the art style, it is definitely from Brotherhood. I have
searched for a long time and couldn't find any episode that matches it.

Where in Brotherhood does this screenshot of Ed and Al as children appear?


**tl;dr: This is probably an original illustration, rather than a still from
_Brotherhood_.**

This illustration _may_ have originated from an official set of postcards
based on the manga and _Brotherhood_ continuity -- when I ran a reverse image
search for the image and included `postcard` and `episode` in the search
terms, I found [an eBay page](http://www.ebay.com/itm/Fullmetal-Alchemist-
Brotherhood-Postcard-Book-Art-/311759633298) where someone is (at the time of
writing) selling such a set. (It seems possible to me that the illustration
may have first appeared in a magazine or an earlier artbook, and that I was
simply unable to locate it.)

One of the photographs in the product description shows the same image as that
of the OP, and even the aspect ratio looks identical.

Many illustrations in the postcard set -- such as those of [Roy and Ed holding
bunches of roses](http://azarashido.sakura.ne.jp/20100107/sCIMG5521.jpg),
[Winry and Ed sitting back-to-back on a
bed](http://azarashido.sakura.ne.jp/20100107/sCIMG5524.jpg), and [Ed in a
state of undress](http://azarashido.sakura.ne.jp/20100107/sCIMG5525.jpg) --
clearly do not originate from either the manga or the _Brotherhood_
adaptation. Taking this into account along with my inability to recall a scene
in _Brotherhood_ that matches the OP's illustration, it makes sense to surmise
that this is probably an original illustration, rather than a still taken from
_Brotherhood_.

The eBay seller states that this postcard set was released on December 22,
2009. I am unfamiliar with _Fullmetal Alchemist_ merchandise and so cannot
confirm this with another source; I also do not know any details about how
this postcard book was released.
