Curious Seventeenth-Century Painting of Music-Making in Casale Monferrato
A painting in the Cathedral of Casale Monferrato shows six members of the Confraternità di San Filippo playing viols, positioned around an unusual music stand where six individual bookstands are supported by a single, central pole. Two choirboys, a harpsichordist and a musical director also participate. The painting is inscribed “SI. NOMIO. QUIS. BROMIUS?”.
