Black and white photography, interior photography, music restaurant, 1947 Group portrait, full figure, front view, three-quarter portrait Four young men pose on a small, low stage, with their instruments. From right to left: A man is sitting at the piano, his hands are covered by the piano. Next to it, raised on a kind of wall table sits a man with guitar, which he holds on the right in his arm and played with his right hand, the left hand grabs the sides of the pole from below. The musician put his feet on a black rotary stool. To the left in front of him is a man with a violin, which he holds on the left under his chin and strokes on the right with his violin bow. His legs are obscured by a bowl on which it says: Werner Guhl. To the left behind him is a man with a double bass, which he holds sideways in his left hand, and with his right hand he plucks the side of the instrument. All four look at the camera. The musicians wear all white sackos. Black pants, except the violinist wearing gray pants, black shirts and a small white fly. All of them cut their hair short and combed back. To the right in front of the piano is a second actor: Werner Guhl. In the background you can see a wall decorating a wall graphic, the romanticizing siluette of three white windows, two rising balloons on the right. Behind the piano player you can see a blued curtain on the side. Bes. Characteristic: Music restaurant is entered in the order book. Until now, there is no further information, either about the Werner Guhl chapel or about the music restaurant. Ch. K.
