Musical Company
1650
From the collection of Statens Museum for Kunst
Musical Company is a 1650 by Unknown, a Baroque work, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This black-and-white photo shows a group of people in a dimly lit room. A woman in a long dress sits holding a lute, while a man next to her plays a violin. Others stand around, some wearing hats, and a dog lies on the floor. A smaller dog sits near the woman’s feet, and a painting hangs on the wall behind them. The scene looks lively but quiet, like a moment frozen in time. The lighting focuses on the musicians, making them stand out against the dark background. If you like this style, look up chiaroscuro next.
