This beautiful painting called 'Geigenbauer' (translated: violin maker) was created by Australian Hermann Kern (1838-1912).
The image shows a man sitting with a violin in his left hand, looking at it with satisfaction. His colourful yellow shirt and blue-green apron stand out against the natural tones of his studio and violins.  
Originally, the painting was made with oil on wood. The digitised version has been enlarged but not edited to preserve the authentic character of the work.
