Open Air Concert is a 1896 oil by Lilla Cabot Perry, a Impressionism work, held at Museum of Fine Arts Boston.
In this painting, three girls stand together in a lush outdoor setting, surrounded by trees and grass. The girl on the left has long brown hair in a braid and wears a blue dress with a brown belt. She holds a violin and bow. The girl in the middle has long brown hair and wears a dark dress with a white collar. The girl on the right has short brown hair and wears a pink dress. The girls are looking at something off to the side, and the atmosphere is serene and peaceful. The painting is done in a soft, impressionistic style, with visible brushstrokes and a focus on capturing the play of light on the subjects.
