This is a traditional fiddle in the process of construction in 1999.
The photographs shows the front and back of a fiddle during construction, illustrating the fact they are fashioned from a single piece of wood.
Fiddles have been made in Scotland since the 16th century, when fine Italian violins were imported and copied by Scottish craftsmen. The fiddle has become a mainstay of Scottish dance music.
