    I realize they're wearing every day clothing of the period but... doesn't change my opinion. Well tailored, gold watch fob, the informal walking stick... and the smirky expressions. Look like señoritos to my eye.

    Jivvy the research is my favorite

    I'm out of town and short on time, but I happen to be spending all my time with an accomplished violinist and she says the hand position of the bowing hand is a dead giveaway that this is a musician, not someone holding a prop.

    FWIW. :joyful:
