Square Pianos
Square pianos, popular from the mid-18th to the early 19th century, were an ingenious compromise between harpsichords and the larger grand pianos, designed to fit into modest European homes. It was affordable, compact, and versatile, making it a symbol of domestic music-making during the Georgian and Regency periods.
