About this work

A seated classical woman in white and gold drapery holds a scroll and a book beside a stone urn carved with figures. Several nude putti surround her, one playing a flute and another holding flowers, while a satyr in the right background gathers grapes near a ruined arch. Drums, trumpets, and an open music score lie in the foreground. The painting is by Balthasar Beschey, dated 1733, and is held by the Hermitage Museum.
