Music is a 1760 oil by Jean Honoré Fragonard, a Rococo painting work, held at Norton Simon Museum.
This painting depicts a woman in a yellow dress, sitting on a cloud, playing a lyre. She has a gentle expression and is surrounded by soft, pastel colors. A small cherub is leaning against her, adding a sense of intimacy to the scene. The woman's dress is flowing and elegant, with a blue shawl draped over her shoulder. The lyre she's playing is intricately detailed, with strings and a curved body. The overall atmosphere of the painting is one of serenity and beauty.
