EDITORS COMMENTS
This chromolitho print showcases "The first musical instrument" from the 19th century, captured by an anonymous French artist. The artwork is part of a private collection and represents a French educational card dating back to the late 19th or early 20th century. In this image, we are transported back in time to the Stone Age, where our ancestors roamed the earth. A hunter is depicted blowing into a horn-like musical instrument made from furs and deer antlers. This ingenious invention not only served as a form of entertainment but also played a crucial role in hunting rituals. The intricate details of this artwork allow us to appreciate the craftsmanship involved in creating such an instrument during prehistoric times. The deadpan expression on the hunter's face suggests his deep concentration while producing melodic sounds that echoed through ancient forests. "The first musical instrument" serves as a testament to human innovation and creativity throughout history. It reminds us that music has always been an integral part of our existence, transcending time and culture. As we gaze upon this remarkable piece, let us reflect on how far we have come since those primitive days when our ancestors discovered new ways to express themselves through sound.
