Guitar maker Amsterdam
This is Sinaya Wolfert. She is a photographer and recently published a book: Amsterdam, Capital of music. With beautiful pictures of musicians, concert halls, bars, audiences and the conservatory. And guess what: there are also pictures of instrument builders and their workshops.
Maybe nice as a Christmas gift?
