National Gallery of Art

The image shows a wooden keyboard instrument with its lid open, revealing the keys and some interior components. The color palette consists of warm tones, including browns and creams, with the instrument's surface highlighting wood grain and craftsmanship. Positioned centrally in the image, the instrument extends horizontally across the composition, supported by slender, tapering legs at each corner. The surface of the instrument on the left side appears smooth and flat, while the keyboard and detailed paneling about halfway extend forward.
