EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases three distinct Welsh harps, each representing different periods in the history of this unique musical instrument. The single Welsh harp at the center is elegantly depicted with its slender neck and intricately carved soundbox. The harp's strings, stretched tautly between the soundbox and the neck, are poised to produce melodious notes when plucked. To the left, an ancient triple Welsh harp graces the image. Its triangular shape and three rows of strings set it apart from the single harp. This harp, a symbol of Welsh cultural heritage, was commonly used in the medieval and early modern periods. Its rich, resonant sound was admired by bards and poets, who employed it to accompany their performances. On the right, a modern triple Welsh harp emerges, its design reflecting the evolution of the instrument. The modern harp boasts a more streamlined shape and a larger soundbox, which enhances its sound projection. Its strings are arranged in five or six courses, allowing for a wider range of notes and greater tonal depth. This exquisite print is a testament to the enduring allure of the Welsh harp and its significant role in Welsh history and culture. The intricate copperplate engraving by John Lee, published in Abraham Rees' Cyclopedia or Universal Dictionary of Arts, Sciences and Literature in 1820, captures the essence of these magnificent instruments with remarkable detail and precision.
