A woman in a pink dress, standing at left, cranks a serinette [French for "little canary"], a small barrel organ used to teach songs to canaries. The a birdcage, housing the canary, hangs above the table, upon which rests both the serinette, and a blue vase contain pink flowers. Beside the table, a grey cat sits upon a wooden chair with green upholstery.
