Business Neglected

John George Brown

National Gallery of Art

The image shows a person seated sideways on a stool or block, playing a flute. The individual has short hair peeking out from under a hat, holding the flute to their mouth with both hands. They wear a loose-fitting top, rolled-up sleeves, pants that end above the knee, shoes, and striped socks. The background features subtle lines hinting at a textured surface.
