Description
English: Oil on canvas painting by John Phillip ; A Lady Playing the Mandolin, painted in 1854. H 51 x W 61 cm. The painter was painting Spanish subjects at this time, so it needs to be considered whether the instrument is not a mandolin but a bandurria . 8 strings (known from looking at the peghead) make it likely to be a mandolin. Bandurrias by this time likely had 12 strings. Picture of the painting by Wolverhampton Arts and Heritage; http://www.artuk.org/artworks/a-lady-playing-the-mandolin-18922
