You mean the one that Leopold looks like the guy with the pitch fork in American Gothic. Nannerl and Wolfgang are at the keyboard,there is a painting on the wall of the departed mother, and Leopold is leaning his violin on the top of the keyboard instrument. The bow is on the top with his left hand touching it.
The violin seems unusually large. Is it a viola? No. Violin. ----- Original Message ----- From: Howard Posner Cc: Lute Net Sent: Saturday, August 13, 2005 1:13 PM Subject: [LUTE] Re: OT: Mozart for guitar Arthur Ness wrote: > That is the painting that Howard mentioned. Pierre Jelyotte (or > Jeliotte) was a singer at the Paris opera (d.1782). No, the one I'm thinking of had Leopold holding a lute-like instrument. But again, it may be a product of my deranged imagination. H To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html --
