EDITORS COMMENTS
This engraving, titled "Chitarrone" takes us back to the 19th century, offering a glimpse into the rich history of musical instruments. Created by an English School artist, this print is part of a private collection and was originally featured in A Descriptive Catalogue of the Musical Instruments in the South Kensington Museum. The Chitarrone itself is beautifully depicted in intricate detail, showcasing its unique design and craftsmanship. This large stringed instrument with an elongated neck was popular during the Renaissance period and often used for accompanying vocal performances or as a solo instrument.

The fine lines create depth and texture while emphasizing the delicate features that make up this musical masterpiece.
