Over het schilderij

Some critics interpreted the subject as a young woman silencing her companion’s oboe to listen to the caged bird. Others read it as the bird out-performing the musician. The figures are wearing 17th-century costume and are set in the dining room of Haddon Hall, Derbyshire, which Horsley first visited in 1835.
