This painting is attributed to the Dutch painter Johannes Vermeer. The painting is titled "The Music Lesson". It depicts a woman seated at a harpsichord, playing and singing to her young daughter. The woman's face is turned toward the viewer, while her daughter's face is more obscured by shadow. This painting was completed in 1658 and has been the subject of much debate as to who painted it. Many art historians believe that Vermeer painted it himself, but others think it was painted by his wife or assistant.
