"Music" is a 1906 painting by Polish artist Jacek Malczewski. It is the left wing of a triptych, depicting a man with a beard and a young woman with a black butterfly on her hand. The painting is notable for its realistic detail and its use of symbolism. The butterfly is a common symbol of transformation and beauty, while the man's somber expression suggests mortality.
