The Play is Ended. Walter Ernest Webster (English, 1878-1959). Oil on canvas.
The Play is Ended closely relates to Webster’s Souvenir of Schumann’s ‘Carnival,’ a homage to the German composer’s musical description of masked revelers. In both pictures the seated ballerina is most probably a representation of Clara Weick, the composer’s future wife, while the reticent Pierrot represents the dreamier and more contemplative side of Schumann’s personality.
