Painted in 1847 by William Sidney Mount (1807–1868), “The Power of Music” shows a Black farmhand listening intently to a fiddler and other musicians playing just inside a barn doorway, a scene widely read for its nuanced, sympathetic depiction of a Black listener at a time when American genre painting rarely treated Black subjects with such dignity. Mount, one of the first major American painters to focus on everyday rural and musical life on Long Island, used the painting to explore music's power to cross social boundaries.

I ordered it on a Friday and it was here Monday. The value here is so good that I keep expecting to find the catch. Our summers are so humid that I was nervous about ordering anything at all, and it has held up perfectly…
My daughter picked this out and she has better taste than I do. There is more going on in The Power of Music than I noticed on the website. 🙂
I'm really pleased with this. The detail in The Power of Music holds up from a couple of feet away. The size is exactly what the description said it would be. I have my eye on a second one. 😍
I kept checking the tracking because I could not wait for it to get here. The tones across The Power of Music are even and true right to the corners.
It went exactly where I planned and needed no adjusting at all. The subject of The Power of Music is what sold me, and it delivers.
