The dog watches Abertano play

Both hands are on the trumpet, one on the valves. The hat has a dark band and a patterned brim. The shirt has long sleeves. The dog is sitting, not standing, and its head points toward the musician. Pines and the blue rail are behind. No score is in view. The note says he is playing the seven melodies of the dance. The frame shows the trumpet and the dog, and it cannot count the melodies.
