In his cycle glorifying the four arts, Mucha deliberately refrained from traditional attributes, such as plumes, musical instruments and painter’s paraphernalia, instead setting each of the arts against a background related to a time of the day; morning for Dance, midday for Painting, evening for Poetry and night for Music.
A girl with outstretched hands holds a red flower in her right hand. The flower symbolises nature as a source of inspiration and admiration for the artist.
