Music by Paolo Veronese

Music by Paolo Veronese

Allegorical picture of Paolo Veronese “Music”. Diameter 230 cm, canvas, oil. The harmony of the composition of the allegory “Music” is given not only by the judicious reception of the conclusion in the circle of the depicted action.

The concentration of all the characters in the lower part of the canvas is balanced by a heavy granite pedestal with the antique figure of the satyr at the top of the picture, and the section of the blue sky with the olive branch gives the composition an ease and completeness.

Bright open colors in the clothes of musicians are moderately muffled, which does not affect the festivity and sublimity of the general mood of the picture.
