When you look at a copy of Arnaut's lute, it always looks a bit odd. It
always seems as though something is not quite right.
But I have a hard time believing that he would make such a big mistake,
because the drawing is so carrefully done. Some of the iconography
shows lutes where the curves seem bumpy rather than smooth, similar to
Arnaut's drawing. I guess I'm thinking of the Gerard David which is
just slightly later than Arnaut. But Medieval perspective is idealized,
rather than realized.
Look forward to hearing one, in any case.

That is some real lateral thinking.
