This is a vintage black and white engraving depicting a man playing a marimba. The marimba is a rectangular wooden frame containing a series of rounded resonators, and the man is striking the bars with a mallet in his right hand. He is wearing a short garment that leaves his legs bare, and he has a strap over his shoulder to support the instrument. His legs are muscular and detailed with cross-hatching, and he is standing on a slightly uneven ground. The background is plain, and at the bottom of the image, there is text that reads 'CXI Instrumento detto Marimba'. The image is numbered '154' in the upper right corner.
