L’Illumination by Alexandre Lunois. A woman sits on a small table or bench in a room with a balcony. The woman wears a large dark hat with a decorative element on top, a red and black corset with puffy sleeves, and a long dark skirt with a red design. She holds sheet music on her lap. A small table with a vase of flowers is to her right. The background features a balcony with a black metal railing and a large orange sun or moon through the railing. The wall behind the woman is yellow. The artwork has a brown border.
