WELL CARVED IN WHITE STATUARY MARBLE, A SEATED SCULPTURE OF A bare footed country maiden musician dressed in simple 18th century garb, with a guitar and attentive, adoring tousle-haired dog seated upon a rock. French / Italian, 19th century.

NOTES : The Latin guitar developed from the Cithara and the Oud. The Moorish Oud retained the rounded back, multiple sound holes and wide fingerboard of the oud. The Latin guitar, on the other hand, had a more narrow neck, a flat back and one sound hole. Despite having only four strings, the Latin guitar of the 11th century is clearly the predecessor of the modern guitar, which preceded the Mandolin,developed later in Italy
