The Pianoforte by Duncan Phyfe shows a wooden piano with a polished finish, displaying a mix of light and dark wood tones. The piano has a curved front and a flat top with a hinged lid that is propped up. The keys are white and appear to be made of ivory or another material. There are decorative metal plates on either side of the keys and a central plate with an intricate design. The legs of the piano are made of dark wood and feature carved designs. The piano has a horizontal bar connecting the legs. The piano sits on a light-colored floor against a plain background.
