Stuka f Posted March 8, 2021 Posted March 8, 2021 Hello, I often come across music intruments during my daily searches, but here is just a part of a piano, I wanted to share. It can be dated prior to 1870, and it is just a pitty the piano is not attached to it anymore....they do fetch high prices. But the main reason I wanted to share thise is because I found during my research a portrait of the founder (Julius Blüthner), and it appears he was well decorated. I tought this might intrerest many here.
peter monahan Posted March 13, 2021 Posted March 13, 2021 Very nice! I'm going to display my ignorance now. Are these military awards, civil awards fro his contributions to music or a mix of the two? Or can you tell? Peter
Stuka f Posted March 16, 2021 Author Posted March 16, 2021 Hey Peter, the medals on the piano sign are only civil awards, that the compagny obtained by particiapting on music intruments exhibition. For the medals Julius Blüthner is wearing; I couldn't tell you like this. I would need to check them out one by one.
