(BLOOMINGTON) - Six historic harps, including one that was reportedly plucked by Marie Antoinette, are now on display at Indiana University’s School of Music in Bloomington.

The 18th and 19th century instruments were donated to I.U.'s Jacobs School of Music.

The donations are from the collection of the late Margaret Dilling, who taught at I.U. in the 1960s.
