About this work

This painting shows a busy scene split into three levels. At the top, two small arches hold people sitting under trees and others playing music. The middle section has a woman in a blue dress holding a fan, a man in orange handing her something, and another man leaning out a window. Below, two figures kneel near a vase of flowers, while a third stands holding a branch. The bright colors and detailed patterns suggest this was made as part of a book. The writing around the edges looks like poetry or a story. Look up The Cleveland Museum of Art to see where this painting is kept.
