Group portrait of four musicians sitting in a semicircle. The women sit in pairs with a small table in the middle, and each holds a traditional musical instrument, incuding a pipa, a sanxian, and an erhu. Several fans lay on the table, and a small clock and flower vase are visible on a cabinet behind them.
