About this work
In the foreground a young man in a blue-grey robe holds a thin dark pipe to his lips. Behind him an elderly bearded man in mustard and purple robes draws a bow across a small stringed instrument. Above them, translucent grey-white figures in sharply folded drapery play triple-reed flutes, and a ram's head appears at the lower right.
A flat, saturated red fills the background, intensifying the ochre and blue-grey of the robes, while the ghostly musicians above sit in cool monochrome with sharply faceted, folded planes. Brushwork stays smooth on faces and hands, angular on the drapery, merging present figures with spectral ancestors in a solemn scene of shared musical tradition.
