Ragnar Hayn, BERLIN, 2015

Ragnar Hayn, a luthier in Berlin, was a subject for a Leica sponsored photo expedition. As a classically trained violinist whose violin was made in Mittenwald, Germany, I was particularly interested in this session for obvious reasons. The quality of the work in his studio for both violins and cellos was stunning, and I learned a great deal about what goes into making an instrument of this caliber.
