Music (poster)

"Music" (2002) is a colored pencil drawing by Prague artist Marie Brožová. Created in her atelier, the original artwork is an A3-format piece, measuring 42 × 29.7 cm (16.5 × 11.7 inches).

The Story Behind the Art

Walking through tall grass filled with blooming periwinkles, the fairy of Music moves with grace. She has just opened the gate to her kingdom, as musical treble clefs ripple across her dress. She dances to the rhythm of a melody heard only by her, leading you into a world full of gifts, instruments, vibrant tones, and endless inspiration.

Interesting Details

Did you know that some people perceive musical tones and keys as colors, turning listening into a visual experience? Russian composers Alexander Scriabin and Nikolai Rimsky-Korsakov even attempted to describe this phenomenon by assigning specific colors to musical keys, reaching beyond the visible spectrum into ultraviolet and infrared. Perhaps it was this colorful perception of music that allowed great composers like Beethoven or Smetana to continue creating masterpieces long after losing their hearing.
