Early 19th Century Portrait

About this work

This print shows Italian violinist Nicolò Paganini. It captures his famous London debut in 1831. Critics raved about his unusual hand position and shoulder shape. His thumb could bend flat onto the back of his left hand. The print highlights his strange but brilliant posture. His left shoulder was lower than his right. This helped him play the violin in new ways. Check out the Victoria and Albert Museum next.
