The print showcases two skilled musicians, a harpist and a lute player, dressed in elaborate costumes that reflect the fashion trends of the era. The image captures not only their musical talents but also provides a glimpse into their working lives as tradesmen. The presence of brass instruments suggests that these musicians were part of an ensemble or band, adding depth to their performance. The historical significance of this artwork lies in its portrayal of professions from centuries ago. It reminds us that even then, people pursued careers in various fields to make a living. This engraving serves as a testament to the rich cultural heritage of Germany and Switzerland during this period.
