About this work

A man stands indoors, playing a long-necked lute. He wears a white cap, a loose white shirt, and striped pants with a red sash. A red curtain hangs behind him, framing the scene like a stage. The floor is dark with a simple pattern, and the walls are plain. This drawing is one of twelve that show musicians and dancers. The colors are flat and bright, with no deep shadows or blending.
