Added the below image and caption to the Trombone History Timeline (19th century, first half). I’ll also be adding it to the article Backward Advances: Rear-Facing Trombones Throughout History. 1810-40—Strasbourg, France: An image by artist Boersch Thiébaut (1782-1861) that is part of set of figurines executed between 1810 and 1850 features musicians of the 14th [...]

3 Rear-Facing Trombones and a Buccin
I recently added the below images and captions to the Trombone History Timeline. In addition to the 3 rear-facing trombones and the buccin (dragon-bell trombone), low brass players may be interested in the 2 serpents and the ophicleide in these pictures. For more information, see the HubPages article Backward Advances: Rear-Facing Trombones Throughout History, and [...]

3 Military Serpents
I just added the following 3 images to the post Serpent & Ophicleide: History and Images, bringing the total number of images in that post to 90.

Two Military Trombonists
I just added two more images to the Trombone History Timeline (20th century). Both are military watercolors by Albert Escher (1833-1905), depicting soldiers of an earlier era. Notice that the trombone player is almost identical (including his instrument) in the two paintings, the differences being the uniforms and, of course, the facial hair. c. [...]

Serpent on the March
It’s not quite as odd as the title sounds. I just added the below caption and image to the post, Serpent & Ophicleide: History and Images. c. 1790—London, England: An engraving depicts a regiment of Foot Guards in front of St. James’s Palace. Included among the soldier-musicians is a serpent player (see below detail; [...]
Trombone in Bavarian Abbey
Just added the below image and entry to the Trombone History Timeline (18th century). Interesting visual perspective—and definitely an unorthodox grip if it’s a trombone. c. 1705—Irsee, Germany (near Kaufbeuren): A fresco by Magnus Remy (1674-1734) decorating the ceiling of Irsee Abbey features angels playing various brass instruments, including what appears to be a [...]
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 [...]

Three Military Trombonists
I recently added the below three military trombone images to their respective timelines: 18th century, 19th century (1st half), and 19th century (2nd half). Not only are they all military subjects, but, although they span roughly a century, they also all feature rear-facing trombones (see here for more rear-facing trombones). The other element of interest [...]

Pick That Thing Up and Play! 9 Trombone Paintings from 17th-Century Flanders
I recently added the top painting shown below, Hendrick de Clerck’s Minerva and the Muses, to the 17th century timeline (1st half). The timeline now features nine Belgian (or Flemish, if you prefer) paintings within the short span of approximately 30 years (c. 1610-c. 1640) that include trombone. They are similar in several respects. Several [...]
