This painting represents a gallant scene in a surreal landscape with a colonnade on the left and the houses in the background. Three groups of characters are represented there. On the left, next to a dog, a woman sitting back with a little girl resting on his knees, facing a turbaned servant who submits a basket. In the center, a musician plays the mandolin for five seated figures who converse or read. On the right, a woman who holds a fan, walks next to a dog. A man and a child are standing behind it.

Following his teacher Watteau, Pater represented almost exclusively romantic scenes, a term used in the 18th century to refer to scenes of everyday life beautified and transformed by the introduction of costumes and props from the theater. The influence of the theater is evident here: the unreal landscape, painted in a light smear, looks like a decor with its architecture convention and distant blue; the characters have stereotypical attitudes; right, walkers seem to come backstage.
