Anyone have a pic of a female celloist?
I've done a google search and can't come up with a good one. I'm looking for a pic of a woman playing the cello. I'd like to make a painting of this, but I'll be damned if there's any pics like I'm looking for.

1. So this one isn't what you're looking for?

Add www. to the front. It's a large musclebound woman in a bikini playing the cello

That's probably one of the strangest pics I've ever seen.

3.  Jacqueline du Pré
Go to Google.com images and put in her name -- lots of photos pop up. She was a famous musician. the movie "Hilary & Jackie" is based on my life.

8. I have a female cousin that is a top cellist (celloist?)
she plays in some symphony in Beijing that I know has toured Europe & the US (played Radio City Music Hall in 2001 or 2002, I think)

Unfortunately, I don't have pics of her playing the cello.

Maybe I can see if she can email one to me? But, her response time is not always good.

11. I'd welcome any pics.
I need the pics for the hands and positioning of the cello. I'd like to have one with the bare knees showing and her head down while playing, but hair back. I might be hoping for too exact an image though.

13. Here's an Image Archive
from a cello society.

http://cello.org/photos/page1.html

The societies may also have names individual cellists which you can do an image search for. Or else check online music stores or maybe music schools for names of cellists. There have got to be lots of struggling musicians with their own web page.

It's not as straightforward a way to search, but it will expand the possibilities.

And I like this one, even thought it's not what you're looking for. :)

16. Ladies playing cello is bad form.
It would be better for them not to play an large instrument that pulsates between their legs.

19. There is a famous Man Ray photo
of the similarity between the form of a woman's back to a cello. It is stunningly beautiful.
