The black and white image shows the orchestra posed with their instruments and includes the printed caption “1881: The original Boston Symphony Orchestra under conductor George Henschel.”\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThe reverse has a fascinating handwritten family annotation identifying one of the pictured cellists as “Grandpa Dick.” The writer notes that he is fourth from the end on the left side of the picture and describes his Van Dyke beard and hand resting on his knee. This personal annotation gives the piece an especially interesting genealogical and Boston music history connection.\u003cbr\u003e\u003cbr\u003eThis is a later vintage reproduction of the historic 1881 image rather than an original 1881 photograph.
