Ivan, you may not know this, but that violin and that bow are both of a HIP period-correct baroque design. The arched bow allows easier playing of double stops as found in Bach's unaccompanied sonatas and partitas. The neck, fingerboard and tailpiece are noticeably different on a baroque violin, but the most obvious visual difference is the absence of a chin rest. Notice how the violin is resting much lower than the player's chin, on her shoulder.
This is an all-in HIP chick, and Chris might have an apoplectic fit if he sees it. Maybe the mods in charge can delete it in time?
