EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning chromolithograph depicts a Viola da Gamba or Bass Viol with a beautifully carved ivory head and neck. The intricately detailed illustration is an exquisite example of the craftsmanship and artistry of musical instrument making during the late 19th century. The Viola da Gamba, also known as the Bass Viol, is a bowed stringed instrument that originated in Europe during the Renaissance period. It was a popular instrument in the Baroque era and continued to be used in chamber music ensembles until the 18th century. The Viola da Gamba typically has a pear-shaped body, a long neck, and a scroll at the upper end. The carved ivory head and neck are a distinctive feature of this particular instrument, adding both aesthetic appeal and functionality. This illustration was created by William Gibb and published in "Historic, Rare and Unique Musical Instruments" by Alfred James Hipkins in 1888. Hipkins was a renowned English musicologist who specialized in the history of the pianoforte and other instruments. The publication showcased a collection of rare and unique musical instruments, providing a glimpse into the rich history of music and musical instrument making. The chromolithograph captures the essence of the Viola da Gamba with its vibrant colors and meticulous attention to detail. It is a testament to the enduring appeal of this historical instrument and the artistry of those who crafted it. The Viola da Gamba with its carved ivory head and neck remains a fascinating piece of musical history, inspiring musicians and collectors alike.
