Created by an unknown artist in the 18th or 19th century, this piece is housed in the Museo Civico Bibliografico Musicale in Bologna, Italy. The image features the iconic Guidonian hand, which was developed by Guido d'Arezzo, an Italian Benedictine and music theorist from the late 10th to early 11th century.
