About the piece

Painted in 1626 during Rembrandt's Leiden period, this work showcases the artist's burgeoning mastery of light and shadow. A central woman in an ornate gown sings from an oversized volume, accompanied by musicians in exotic attire, while the foreground is cluttered with beautifully rendered lutes and leather-bound scores.
