ABC Wednesday—V is for "violinist"


There's something about this young musician that's
special.  I've seen him a few times playing
with a group in the Paris metro.  Saw the group
sans him the last time I was there,
so maybe that means he got a dress-up gig.

  2. It's a beautiful portrait! Listening to music, especially violins is joyful. Perhaps it's the stance, but photos of violinist are alway appealing, esp if the musician is as good looking as this one!

  4. I can’t judge his musical performance but, just a little, his striking features bring to mind an Italian Renaissance portrait; something like the 1495 Portrait of a Young Man by Raffaellino del Garbo.

    1. So close! Trust me—he's as talented as he is pretty (yes, men can be "pretty").

    2. Pretty? Actually I thought these were kind of in the ballpark: Leonardo, Giovanni Ambrogio de Predis (attributed), Bernardino Luini, Raphael, not to mention this.
