  • The composition celebrates Music, one of the seven Liberal Arts. The figure of Music, represented as a richly dressed woman, sits on a throne in an arched niche at the left side of the field. Her name, MUSICQUE, appears as an inscription near her mouth. With her left hand she plays a small portable organ resting on one arm of the throne, while the fingers of the right hand follow notes marked on a sheet of music held by an attendant. A fashionably dressed minstrel sits playing a dulcimer in the extreme foreground, at the lower left. Other minstrels playing harp, lute, flute or rebec, and a jester playing bagpipes, form a group in the middle right. A nude child blows trumpet before Music's throne, while a second child plays the triangle among the musicians at the right. A man pumping the bellows behind the small organ comletes the group of human figures. The entire company are depicted in a flower garden, the grass strewn with blossoming plants and the back wall formed of a trellis overgrown with roses. The end of a building and a part of a garden wall appear at the far right beyond the trellis-arch. In the lower corner of the field, just above the guard, there is a scroll inscribed as follows: INVENERE LOCUM PER ME MODULAMINA VOCUM DAT NOTULA SCIRE MUSICA DOCTA LIRE. This inscription has been interpreted in a number of different ways. (en)
