This 18th-century tile panel, in shades of blue on white, depicts a young nobleman playing a wind instrument, probably a flute, in a countryside landscape. The figure, elegantly dressed and wearing a hat, is framed by a border with floral motifs and scrollwork typical of Portuguese tilework. In the background, a house and trees can be seen, composing a serene and idealized scene of everyday life.
