This painting shows a bright, two-story building with people inside. On the lower level, three figures play music—one sits on a red carpet with a lute, another stands in a red dress near a doorway, and a third plays a long wind instrument. The upper level has a balcony with a tree and a white stand holding candles. The walls are decorated with simple patterns, and a shelf holds three white jars. The colors are bold: reds, yellows, and greens stand out against the muted background. The figures look like they’re performing together, but each has their own space. Next, check out the Victoria and Albert Museum to see more works like this.
