More about this artwork

"Music, Interior from Paris" (1887) by Harriet Backer captures a moment of intimate musical engagement in a softly lit interior setting. In this evocative painting, we see two figures positioned at a piano, deeply absorbed in their artistic collaboration. The woman, dressed in a white gown, gracefully touches the piano keys, suggesting a calm and concentrated execution of the piece they are performing. Beside her, a man in a dark suit listens attentively, perhaps waiting for his cue or simply enjoying the music that fills the room.The scene is painted with Backer’s characteristic attention to the effects of light, which filters through the room and illuminates the subjects with a gentle glow that enhances the tranquil atmosphere. The brushwork is loose, allowing the colors and forms to blend subtly into the environment, creating a sense of warmth and depth.This piece not only showcases Backer's skill in rendering light and shadow but also her ability to capture a moment of everyday life with a sense of immediacy and emotional depth.
