The Pathetic Song by Thomas Eakins: A painting of three people in a room. The woman on the left wears a long, light-colored dress with ruffles and gold detailing. She has dark hair pulled back and holds a sheet of paper. The woman on the right sits at a piano, wears a long, dark dress, and has dark hair. The man sits on a chair behind the woman in light-colored dress, wearing a dark suit and tie. The background shows a brown wall with a gold frame, a vase on a table, and a small portrait. The floor has a colorful rug.
