The image is a painting that depicts a domestic scene from a historical period. On the left, an individual is seated, playing a string instrument which resembles a lute. They are wearing a white blouse with a wide, layered collar and are holding a piece of paper or music score. The clothing style suggests a time period that could be the 17th or 18th century. To the right, there is another individual, turned slightly inward, who seems to be listening to the music. This person is dressed in a red garment with white fur trim at the collar and cuffs, their attire implying a sense of affluence or status. The individual is seated on a wooden chair with a high back. There is also a colorful bird perched on the back of the chair, displaying orange, black, and white feathers, possibly some type of parrot. In the foreground, on the floor, a decorative object, which appears to be a silver jug, adds detail to the scene. The environment suggests the interior of a well-appointed house, with a darkened doorway or cupboard in the background, adorned with what look like metal urns or finials. The painting captures a personal moment that might revolve around leisure and music, characteristic of genre scenes that depict everyday life from the period.
