Musical Instrument

Cleveland Museum of Art

The Musical Instrument by an unknown artist shows a stringed musical instrument with a round body and long neck. The instrument's body is made of wood with a darker brown coloration and some lighter brown areas, and it has a small hole in the center. The instrument's neck is long and thin with 8 protruding tubes of varying lengths, each wrapped with tan string. The neck and body are connected at an angle. There are 11 strings attached to the instrument's body and neck. A long piece of tan material, possibly leather or string, lies on the ground next to the instrument. The background is a gradient from dark gray at the top to light gray at the bottom.
