Musical Animals (illustrations) Page 1
Hello friends, Samm Bennett here. Humans are most likely the only creatures on this planet who employ instruments to make music with, but throughout history they have been known to depict, in drawings and paintings, cartoons, animation and more, animals of all kinds playing musical instruments. I find this phenomenon interesting, so I've collected these images here in hope that you may find them interesting and fun to view as well. They come from all countries and all eras. This page, featuring hundreds of illustrations, is now complete.
NOTE: This and all the other galleries here at my website feature images or historical items I find worthy of interest in one way or another, and I hope you will find something(s) here that interest you as well. I spend a great deal of time collecting and compiling these materials, which you are free to enjoy at your leisure. Should you want to support me in these efforts, and/or my musical efforts which you'll find plenty of here at the website, I do hope you'll consider making a donation (however small!) via PayPal to help sustain these activities. The PayPalMe link is HERE. Thanks!

That frog and those mice are playing THEMSELVES!
OK, well, these aren't animals, I know, but any cactus that can play a musical instrument deserves to be here, I think.
True, these aren't animals playing instruments. They're instruments playing themselves. But a frog is watching, so it belongs here...
