Dear list,
a few years ago I saw pictures of a lute built by a well known
british lutemaker and showing a really beautiful golden rose.
Baroque lutenists certainly know about the Allemande of Ennemond
Gaultier (Vieux Gaultier) "La roze d'or" also known as "The loss of the
golden rose lute".
My question is: have you any news (or iconographc evidence) of
(original) lutes with a golden rose?
Thank you in advance,
Luca
