I was watching a video on Youtube of Christina Pluhar and l'Arpeggiata in concert and there is a bowed instrument I did not recognize. It looks like a very fat viola da gamba with diapasons and a very wide and intricately carved peg box. It is just behind Ms. Pluhar being played by a woman in a red shawl and you can see it best at about the two minute mark.
