"The Concert" (c. 1657) is a celebrated oil painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Gerard ter Borch (1617–1681). Ter Borch, renowned for his ability to capture the subtleties of human interaction and the textures of luxurious fabrics, brings these talents to bear in this intimate genre scene. The painting depicts a moment of musical entertainment within a domestic setting, a theme popular in 17th-century Dutch painting, reflecting the cultural and social importance of music in the private lives of the Dutch middle and upper classes.

In "The Concert," Ter Borch presents a group of figures engaged in a musical performance. The central characters are typically elegantly dressed, consistent with Ter Borch's interest in the attire and demeanor of the higher echelons of society. A woman is often shown playing a keyboard instrument, likely a virginal, while a standing gentleman with a songbook participates in the performance, and another figure, often a man, listens attentively. The interaction between the figures suggests a narrative of social harmony and refined leisure, themes that resonate with the values of the period.

The painting's composition is notable for its use of light and shadow, which Ter Borch masterfully employs to create a sense of depth and to draw the viewer's attention to the central action. The artist's meticulous attention to detail is evident in the rendering of the figures' expressions and the intricate details of their clothing, as well as in the depiction of the room's interior and the musical instruments.

"The Concert" is part of a larger body of work by Ter Borch that explores the social customs and daily activities of the Dutch upper class. His work is characterized by a psychological depth and an interest in the nuanced interactions between individuals. This painting, like many of Ter Borch's works, is admired for its quiet elegance and the artist's skillful portrayal of the textures and materials of the subjects' surroundings.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, "The Concert" is held in a prominent museum collection, where it continues to be studied and appreciated for its artistic merit and historical significance. The painting is a quintessential example of Ter Borch's contribution to Dutch genre painting and offers insight into the cultural life of the 17th-century Netherlands.
