Draailierspeler valt een pelgrim aan
Here a hurdy-gurdy player flies at a pilgrim’s throat. What could have happened? In the 17th century, the hurdy-gurdy was associated primarily with street musicians who went door to door playing a tune in exchange for a handout. These musicians were often blind and therefore accompanied by a dog. This hurdygurdy player appears to be carrying a beautifully crafted instrument.
