"A Woman Playing the Theorbo-Lute and a Cavalier" is a circa 1658 painting by the Dutch Golden Age artist Gerard ter Borch. This genre painting, executed in oil on canvas, depicts an intimate domestic scene where a woman is seen playing a theorbo-lute, a large stringed instrument of the lute family, while a cavalier, or gentleman, watches her with an attentive gaze. The interaction between the figures suggests a private concert or a moment of musical instruction, a common theme in 17th-century Dutch painting that reflects the cultural importance of music in the social and domestic life of the period.

Gerard ter Borch, known for his skill in capturing the textures of materials and the subtleties of human interaction, employs a muted palette and a masterful handling of light to create a sense of warmth and immediacy. The painting is notable for its fine detail, particularly in the rendering of the luxurious fabrics and the intricate design of the theorbo-lute. The figures are dressed in contemporary attire, with the woman's elegant costume and the cavalier's refined outfit indicating their social status.

The work is part of Ter Borch's mature period, during which he produced some of his most celebrated genre scenes. "A Woman Playing the Theorbo-Lute and a Cavalier" is exemplary of Ter Borch's ability to convey narrative through gesture and expression, inviting viewers to ponder the relationship between the characters and the context of their musical exchange.

As of the knowledge cutoff date, the painting is held in a private collection or a museum, and it continues to be studied for its artistic merit and contribution to the understanding of Dutch genre painting. It is often discussed in the context of Ter Borch's oeuvre and the broader trends in European art of the 17th century.
