Masked and Unmasked Persons at the Confectioner's is a 1751 oil by Pietro Longhi, held at Statens Museum for Kunst.
This painting shows a group of people in a room. Some are wearing masks, and others are not. The room is decorated with mirrors and a large cabinet. The people are dressed in old-fashioned clothes. A woman is standing behind a counter, and a man is sitting on a chair. Some people are talking to each other, and others are looking at the woman. The room is well-lit, and the colors are soft. The painting is very detailed, and you can see the textures of the clothes and the furniture. It's like you're looking at a real scene from a long time ago. If you like this painting, you might also like the work of Pietro Longhi.
