Pennie, this is moving and superb image. Thank you for your explanation of the sad event and the cellist who commemorated it. l/f

A poignant tribute to the most abstract art, Pennie... was it a cellist-- or violinist -- in the midst of endless & deadly sniper fire during the 1990s Siege of Sarajevo, who maintained the morale of an entire city?
Pennie McCracken replied:
Joseph, it was Vedran Smailović, a cellist who played for 22 days, at the same time and location, dressed in tails to honour the 22 people who were killed by a mortar bomb while they queuing up for bread. It was on May 26, 1992. Very sad time indeed. Thank you for your lovely comment.
