In the Nicolaes Maes painting 'The Eavesdropper' from 1657 you can see a maid trying to pull in the viewer, to keep the secret of what you are seeing. She is pointing to Juno, the goddess of marriage and childbirth, intimating that they are cheating. The pair under the stairs appears to be doing something they shouldn't be.

![The Music Lesson by Vermeer, part of the Royal Collection Trust and is usually on view at Buckingham Palace (England).
The scene is situated in a large room, apparently shown in perfect perspective. A room of this size did not exist in Vermeer’s home. The harpsichord has a Latin inscription: Musica Laetitiae Comes Medicina Dolor[um] - Music, Companion of Joy, Balm for Sorrow.
