This 1797 guitar, crafted by Benito Sanchez de Aguilera, is a striking example of 18th-century lutherie. Its elegant, elongated form and intricate details are characteristic of the period. The intricate carvings and the delicate soundhole add to the overall visual appeal of the instrument. Currently housed at the Metropolitan Museum of Art in New York City, the guitar's remarkable preservation allows us to appreciate the craftsmanship of this Spanish maker.
