Luitspeler stemt zijn instrument 1887 - 1912

"Luitspeler stemt zijn instrument" is a 19th-century etching by Albert Van Holsbeeck depicting a man in a dimly lit room tuning a lute with another figure beside him, possibly his patron. The etching's detailed lines and dark shadows create an atmosphere of intimacy and quiet contemplation, characteristic of the artist's style. The composition, with its emphasis on the seated figures and the window framing the scene, suggests a focus on the musician's craft and the relationship between artist and patron.
