About this work

A lithograph titled Le prélude, after Gerard ter Borch, shows a bearded man in a cap and buttoned jacket holding a violin and bow while seated at a table. A bowl, a small plate with food, and a spoon rest on the table beside him against a dark background. The print carries the publisher's credit to Paul Petit and the Galerie Impériale de l'Ermitage.
