The Power of Music

William Sidney Mount

Cleveland Museum of Art

The painting depicts four men in a barn scene. A man with a white shirt, red suspenders, and blue cap plays a violin on a stool. He faces a man in a green jacket and brown hat. A third man in a white jacket and hat stands behind them. A fourth man leans against a wooden wall to the right, wearing a tan jacket, blue overalls, and a yellow neckerchief. A jug and axe are on the ground beside him. Straw and debris are scattered on the ground. The background shows a wooden barn interior with a thatched roof.
