Well, as promised, here are some pictures of the back of the psaltery that I have been working on.

I’ve finally got my new photography tent all set up, and this was one of the very first pictures. I’m still tweaking and perfecting things, so please bear with me. It has always been at the forefront of my mind just as to how to go about photographing a bowed psaltery. The shape is very awkward, and I never can seem to settle on one single correct viewing angle.

As for the psaltery itself, it should be evident from the title of this post what the figure on this instrument resembles. I took one extra picture of the back to show a better view of the details.
