Visualize a lavish Venetian masquerade ball. A diverse group of guests, wearing extravagant costumes and masks, are dancing in a majestic hall lit by hundreds of candles. The ball is lively with music coming from a quartet composed of a Caucasian woman playing a violin, a Hispanic man on the cello, an Asian man managing the viola, and a Black woman holding the double bass. Waiters of all descents, both male and female, circulate with trays of shimmering champagne glasses.
