For melodious tunes and songs so sweet
the virtuosoi of Italy just can't be beat.
While the brazen violins of Hungary and Austria
will play dances so fast it will surely exhaust ya.
But there's none to compare for brash reckless romance
than the fearless young fiddlers of France!

These two young acrobatic musicians
prove that the violin,
a difficult instrument to play
even with the best posture,
can be made even more challenging
if one twists their mind around it.
The boy and presumably his older sister
appear on an undated postcard with the singular title
Les French.
The card was printed in Dijon, France,
the city of fine mustard,
and is similar to postcards of French entertainers
from around 1908-1920.
I wonder if the duo ever played cellos too.
