The frieze of the Teatro Nacional de D. Maria II depicts a man and several women lounging in classical Greek style. The central figure portrays a man seated and playing a lyre while there are four women on one side and three women with an angel on the other. Two of the women also play lyres while one holds a horn.
Unfortunately the title, date or artist are unknown the the poster of this Waymark.
Wikipedia's article on the Theatre identifies the figures as Apollo and the Muses. (
