In the foreground, a figure seated on the floor plays a guitar. The body of the instrument is violet, sown with small leaves, its soundhole ringed in green and its neck pink with red dots at the head. The figure has a smooth face, featureless but for a line of beads where the eyes would be, hair gathered in a red scarf with a green leaf, and very long legs stretched across a mat striped in red and grey.

Behind, standing, a second figure with green hair plays a violin whose mauve, veined body is crossed lengthwise by a green band carrying the strings, its red bow running across the scene on the diagonal and the left arm raised to the right, the hand open. Both wear patterned fabrics — orange with scrollwork, greens, blues — that overlap without showing where one ends and the other begins.

No ground is left empty: the wall is a tapestry of red flowers with sharp petals on green stems, blue six-leaved flowers and tiles with small figures. The whole surface stands in relief, with thick black contours and granular whites, and there are gold and silver glints scattered through the weave. The signature is at the lower right.
