Het schilderij is wederom van Max Liebermann en het is een voorstelling van rustig converserende en theedrinkende mensen op het terras van Huis ter Duin in Noordwijk. Het beeld roept associaties op met het prachtig ingetogen, beetje ‘lazy’ liedje van Randy Newman "Dayton/Ohio 1903". "Things were green and movin’ slow", "people’d stop to say hello", "days flowed quietly" en "come over for tea". Van die dingen, ja, van die dingen.
Dayton/Ohio in 1903 (Randy Newman)
Let’s sing a song of long ago
When things were green and movin’ slow
And people’d stop to say hello
Or they’d say hi to you Let’s sing a song of long ago
When things could grow
And days flowed quietly
The air was clean and you could see
And folks were nice to you
"Would you like to come over for tea
With the missus and me?"
It’s a real nice way
To spend the day
In Dayton Ohio
On a lazy Sunday afternoon in 1903
