Description

Four men in red jackets are arranged in an informal ensemble. All are represented with stringed instruments. There are three instruments of roughly violin-sized dimensions but given the ensemble perhaps this is meant as one viola and two violins (along with a violoncello) to make a string quartet?

Violin [3573] (There are three instruments of roughly violin-sized dimensions but given the ensemble perhaps this is meant as one viola and two violins to make a quartet?)
