The painting depicts a still life with a violin and music. The violin is hanging on a cream-colored wooden background with its bow to the left. The violin is made of wood, with a darker wood at the top of the scroll and around the f-holes. The bow is long and thin with a brown handle. A sheet of music is stuck to the violin with three black pins. The music is white with black writing. A horseshoe is hanging above the violin. A curved metal tool and a knife are on the right of the violin. A black and white flute is underneath the violin, and a small white tag is attached to it. The background resembles a wooden door or wall with vertical planks. There are metal straps and hardware on the background. The frame around the painting is brown.
