Description:
The scene depicts two young women seated along the edge of a fountain, long trumpets raised to their mouths to signal dawn's arrival as the sun begin to rise on the horizon, tinging the clouds with pale pink. Seated opposite the women are two hounds, one brown and one white, each with its nose pointed toward the women as they listen to the music.
