EDITORS COMMENTS
This print showcases a stringed instrument that once belonged to a dance master in the 19th century. Crafted from wood, this exquisite piece is reminiscent of an 18th-century violin, known as a pochette de maitre a danser. The delicate curves and intricate details of this small violin-like instrument are truly mesmerizing. Its rich history can be traced back to the French School of the 19th century, where it was used by ballet masters to guide dancers through their graceful movements. Now part of a private collection, this remarkable artifact offers us a glimpse into the world of classical music and dance during that era. It serves as a testament to the skill and artistry of those who dedicated their lives to mastering these elegant art forms. Accompanying this extraordinary stringed instrument is an old score sheet, hinting at countless hours spent perfecting compositions for ballet performances. The combination of both visual and auditory elements evokes a sense of nostalgia for an era long gone. Preserved with care by eArchives Charmet, this photograph captures not only the beauty but also the historical significance behind this unique musical relic. A true treasure for any lover of fine art or music aficionado alike.
