Based on what you see in this work, what do you imagine about what was happening immediately before this moment? What details support your conjecture? What do these details tell you about the setting of the painting? How does the artist emphasize these details to show their importance?

  3. Imagine you are writing a short story inspired by this painting. Write the opening paragraph that would explain the setting and background information. Using descriptive words, capture the same images the artist captures on canvas. Also, imitate the mood that seems evident in the scene. Henri Matisse. The Music Lesson. 1917. Oil on canvas. Barnes Foundation, Lincoln University, Merion, PA, USA.
