The photograph was taken by an English photographer in the 19th century and is now part of a private collection. The intricate details of this historic piece are beautifully captured in this image, allowing us to appreciate its craftsmanship and elegance. The spinet, also known as a harpsichord, is made of wood and features delicate keys that produce enchanting melodies when played. This particular instrument holds great significance as it was featured in "A Descriptive Catalogue of the Musical Instruments in the South Kensington Museum" published in 1874.
