Description

Text from museum website:
The mask and violin seen in other works by Severini have here been transformed from emblems into personal possessions arranged before an open window. Although Severini visited Italy regularly, he and his family lived in Paris. With its view of typical Parisian apartment buildings, this scene is clearly located in the painter’s adopted country.
