定音鼓

Franz Peter Bundsen Hanoverian (German)

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 683

这对华丽的银质定音鼓是在汉诺威为乔治三世的皇家近卫骑兵团而造。乔治三世是大不列颠和爱尔兰的国王，也是汉诺威的选帝侯；鼓上有他的盾徽。在十七世纪至十九世纪之间，这样的仪式鼓通常在马背上演奏，一旁有伴奏的号手为皇家仪仗队开道。很多这样的鼓都被人们溶解掉以获得贵重金属，留存至今的只有屈指可数的几套。这一藏品是为汉诺威王朝（1714 –1901年）的英国君主所造的四对定音鼓中最古老的一对。原本在使用中装饰于鼓下方的深红色旗帜也流传了下来。
