DescriptionMusicians play at the center of a grand salon with large, curtained windows and a painting ceiling, encircled by a finely dressed audience. The image is decorated with an ornamental frame, and coat of arms below. This print by Duclos is based on a drawing by Augustin de Saint-Aubin that was exhibited in the Salon of 1773 (no.291), originally entitled "Un Concert Bourgeois."
