This is a painting of a tavern sign. The sign displays a medieval minstrel-like figure playing a lute within an oval frame. Above the figure, the text "J. Porter" is written. The minstrel is on a grassy patch with a goblet and other decorative elements. The sign has a historical, folk-art style and an aged patina, reminiscent of classic pub signage.
