Image description

At the centre of the composition, a slip of paper bears the words ‘vanitantum et omina vanitas’ (‘vanity of vanities, all is vanity’ Ecclesiastes 1:2- 3), underlining the theme of the picture. Among the musical instruments lies a score by Jacob van Eyck entitled Der Fluyten Lust-Hof (The Flute of the Garden of Pleasure, published in 1646), opened at a variation on the melody Questa Dolce Sirena by Gastoldi.
