EDITORS COMMENTS
This print titled "How the Viol is tuned" takes us back to the 17th century, showcasing an engraving by an English School artist. The image captures a moment of musical mastery as a male musician delicately tunes his viola de gamba, a stringed instrument known for its rich and resonant tones. Seated with poise and concentration, the musician's portrait exudes both skill and passion. His focused expression reveals the dedication required to master such a complex instrument. A bow in hand, he prepares to draw it across the strings, coaxing out melodies that will transport listeners to another time. The composition of this photograph emphasizes not only the beauty of music but also pays homage to craftsmanship. Every detail is meticulously captured - from the intricate carvings on the viola de gamba itself to each strand of horsehair on the bow. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece of art, we are reminded of how music has always been an integral part of human expression. It transcends language barriers and speaks directly to our souls. This print serves as a timeless reminder that musicians throughout history have dedicated their lives to creating harmonies that touch hearts and stir emotions. With its historical significance and artistic allure, "How the Viol is tuned" invites us into a world where music reigns supreme – where talent meets tradition in perfect harmony.
