"A lady (left) sits at a piano, in back view, playing and singing. Beside her is a man playing the cello. Both sing: "Beviamo tutti tie" [sic]. Two men sit side by side, in profile to the left, one playing the violin, the other the flute. A little girl lying on the floor tilts dangerously the chair of the violinist, who watches intently the couple at the piano. A loutish youth in top-boots (right) plays with a dog whose collar is inscribed 'Anne Jon'."--British Museum online catalogue
