Last April I added a Baroque still life to the timeline and mentioned it in this blog. Still life paintings that include trombone are difficult to find; most often, if they include a brass instrument, they seem to include trumpet rather than trombone. However, I recently found the below image, also from the 2nd half [...]

Angel-Trombonist from Italian Switzerland
Just added the below entry and image to the Trombone History Timeline (17th century, 2nd half). I will probably also add it to the HubPages article, Angel-Trombonists Throughout History.

Musicians and Mercury
I just added the below caption and image to the 17th century timeline (1st half). As you can see from this article, trombone was active in processions even well before this seemingly early example. 1614—Dresden, Germany: An image documenting a procession in honor of the baptism of Duke August depicts two trombones and a [...]
Trombone on Baroque Organ Shutters
I just added the below image and caption to the Trombone History Timeline (17th century, first half). Another angel-trombone. 1638—Schleiz, Germany: A painting on the left organ shutter in the Bergkirche includes an angel trombonist among several angel musicians (see below image; public domain).

Trombone on Organ Shutters
I just added the below image and caption to the Trombone History Timeline (17th century—2nd half). Elsewhere I have posted numerous examples of trombonists perched on organ pipes, but I believe this is the first picture I’ve added with a trombone on organ shutters. Included below but not in the timeline is a view of [...]

Trombone History: Four More Renaissance Pictures
Just added four more images to the Trombone History Timeline (16th century), all of them from processions in Renaissance Germany. 1582—Dresden: Artist Daniel Bretschneider records the events of a procession, including 2 trombonists among a group of female instrumentalists (see below image—click on picture for larger version; public domain). 1584—Dresden, Germany: A procession during wedding [...]

Two More 16th-Century Trombones in Procession
Just added the below two images to the 16th-century timeline. They are both from a procession in 1582 in Dresden, Germany (more details can be found in the timeline). The fact that the trombone players are either female or dressed as female is interesting, as is the instrumentation of the ensembles. Click on picture for [...]

Bone in the Clouds: Another Baroque Angel-Trombonist
Today I added another image to the Trombone History Timeline (17th century, first half)—yet another angel-trombonist. I’ll also be adding it to the HubPages article, Angel-Trombonists Throughout History. Below is the drawing, along with the timeline caption. The artist is actually known primarily for his work as an early art historian. The image looks like [...]
