I love the violin, not only the music it makes but the beauty of a beautifully made violin, the wood, the patina the shape, and the history. I also love still life paintings and own a few that include a violin. But I have never had a piece as big or as beautiful as this one that I recently found at a flea market for $40.00.
What do you think? I love it! The only bad thing, the wall space that I thought it would be perfect on, is not big enough! Oh well, I will have to move a few things around to make room for such a beautiful piece.
I am linking this to Southern Hospitality Thrifty Treasure, there are so many beautiful finds over there, come over and see what beautiful items can be had for so little!

This is a really beautiful painting, Elizabeth! And a great price! I have a friend who plays the violin and always wish I had learned. Any aspirations on your part?
Thanks so much for stopping by! We really did have a fun weekend! 🙂

You must have been thrilled with a discovery like this! It's a wonderful painting with a wonderful subject, and an icredible price! Flea markets are famous for very low prices on art. Good deal!
