I came across a reference to this site recently: http://www.klassiskgitar.net/imagesa.html
It's got literally hundreds of illustrations of guitars, lutes, citterns, mandolins and others. You could spend hours pondering over them. Here's the English guitar and 'cistre ou guitthare allemande' ones. There are many depictions of citterns on the site (often called lutes!) English guitar (guittar) Pickersgill: http://www.klassiskgitar.net/pickersgill-limprovisatrice.html Reynolds: http://www.klassiskgitar.net/reynolds-sussannah.html Wright: (Doc noted this one recently - from another site, I think) http://www.klassiskgitar.net/wrightaofderby-mrsrobert.html unknown http://www.klassiskgitar.net/unknown19-musician.html ....................................... Even more obscure: the 'cistre ou guitharre allemande' Borione http://www.klassiskgitar.net/borione-practice.html Zasche http://www.klassiskgitar.net/unknown19-musician.html ................................................ There are lots of very familiar paintings - but lots that are new to me. There are lots of intriguing 19th century curiosities too..and perhaps some dodgy ones. For example C. Amalfi (?) http://www.klassiskgitar.net/amalfi-unknown.html (all got the same face?) And this seventeenth century guitar with six tuning pegs http://www.klassiskgitar.net/roman1school-still.html To get on or off this list see list information at http://www.cs.dartmouth.edu/~wbc/lute-admin/index.html
