The Old Violin by William Michael Harnett 1886 National Gallery of Art Washington, D.C. | Harnett, William Michael | ated by showing signs of wear and age throughout the painting. Even the songs, one from Bellini's La Sonnambula, and the other the popular song "Helas, Quelle Douleur," are concerned with temporal change. But it is the violin itself, now mute, but worn with use and still dusted with rosin, that speaks most evocatively of past pleasures. | |
