Luis,
We live in very different times. In past people were accustomed to things that
we wouldn't tolerate. As far as I know many people were portrait with real
instruments, otherwise we could say that all iconography is rubbish. Is
portrait of Moutton just a rubbish? Was he holding a prop? A ve
Jaroslaw,
Just conjecture, but I would not use a working instrument to pose for
many hours for a painting of this detail. I keep mine in a case at all
times it is not being played to help keep it in tune. Do you think she
would tolerate a lute of her own that dirty? In that dress?
Yes, but Eleonore was musical and could play, so the question is why she would
borrow a strangely looking prop lute instead of the instrument that she new how
to play. Normally a musician wants to be pictured with his own instrument.
I am not saying that everything looks correct in this lute for
There is a picture in the National Gallery of Scotland of
a woman playing a theorbo, with the comment that she couldn't play,
she borrowed it for the painting, and then she didn't return it.
I didn't make a note of the details, but it was in a book catalog
of the museum.

Thank you Martyn,
Sorry, I've pushed the button too early by mistake.
No, I am sorry, unfortunately it is not known to me, but I can't see the reason
for which she would take for a portrait an instrument that she didn't play
instead of an instrument that she did.

Just another thought.
Eleonore married Detrich von Keyserling who was a very close friend of
Frederick II. In 1744 she gave birth to her daughter Adelaide. Frederick
decided to be Adelaide's godfather and during the baptism ceremony he was
keeping the child in his arms. Soon Keyserlings were mo

Certain things do stand out as accurate:
1) Lay a ruler down the edge of the fingerboard on both sides,
these coincide with edges of the bridge. The neck was originally a
baroque lute with a bent neck. The artist does not bother to correct
the un-esthetic crossi

Hello Martyn,
It is just a painting, so we can't judge its credibility by making measurements
. In a praxis of painting sometimes it's just a matter of adding a little bit
more of a dark paint beneath the string (and there is already a dark background
there so he might have thought it satisfie

I understand that you would always have 8+4 setting. The only thing is that one
would have to rearrange couple of courses when changing from continuo to solo
and back. However after some time of examining very closely the pegbox I am
more inclined to say that there is something on the treble sid

You may be right, but Pesne wouldn't be the first good painter to get a
technical details wrong - perhaps of no real consequence to him.
But if it is an absolutley precise depiction then some worrying things

Yes, I agree more or less. The only thing that I am not sure of is whether 2
first grooves on the nut are far apart because this is how they were in
reality, or Pesne didn't bother to depict a proper spacing. So it could be

Dear Martyn,
It may look very incorrect however we have to keep in mind that a painting is
not a photograph. A painter has other goals to achieve. We can examine some
interesting details of paintings, but coming into direct conclusions is another
matter.
First of all, Antoine Pesne who was the
Dear Jaroslaw,
It may be some sort of sport (in a modern biological sense), but I
suspect either the painter didn't quite get it right - see how the
first string is fastened not to the to the body of the bridge but to
the treble point! - or the neck is indeed incorrectly set (maybe
