The Lay of Pestal - Sheet Music Cover

Winslow Homer

Cleveland Museum of Art

The image shows a black-and-white illustration on a sheet music cover. The title "THE LAY OF PESTAL" is written in an arch at the top. A man sits on a stone ledge, wearing a military-style jacket and pants, with his right arm resting on a chain attached to the wall. The man has short hair and a mustache. A small table with a vase is to his right. The background features a brick wall with a barred window. Music notes are visible on the wall behind the man. Text below the illustration reads "YES ! THE DYE IS CAST 'AND REST TROUBLED HEART'" and "ARRANGED BY J. P. LINCOLN". The publisher's information is at the bottom.
