We ([1]Cuerdas Pulsadas)A have been playing with this idea for a while,
in our case with lute related iconography.
Maybe some day i will find enough time to insert more and more
paintings...
Check it out here:A [2]http://www.cuerdaspulsadas.com/timeline/
You can view a pretty timeline, but also use the tags in the full
detailed view of each painting in order to search by author, by decade,
by country...
I hope you find it interesting.
Kind regards.

Very interesting, watching it all expand, collapse, fragment, and
disappear. When I viewed it, the end occurred in 1453 with the
Ottoman Turks consuming Constantinople. What & where did you find
anything further? Holy Roman history? (Not wholly Roman in any case;
or as was famously observed, "Not Holy, not Roman, and not an
empire.")
In the meantime, we do have the big time-line chart from "The Lute
in Europe 2" ('Die Laute in Europa 2") by Andreas Schlegel & Joachim
Ludtke. Well worth having.

The Wikipedia article on the Roman Empire

has an animated map of the Empire's extent (500 BC
to 1650 AD).A It shows expansion from 500 BC to about
300 AD, then a collapse through 1650 AD.
It might be interesting to see such a map for the lute.
A lute map would not have borders, as with geo-political
entities.A Instead, we might have something like "one red dot for
every 100 lute/vihuela players, one green dot for every 100
viol players, one black dot for every major composer, ... ".
I suppose compiling data for a lute
map would be prohibitively laborious.A Nevertheless,
it is interesting to ask whether the data exists.A Could one
examine receipts, guild records (eg string makers), diaries,
histories, notebooks, paintings and other documents and eventually
compile data (by year and location) that a computer expert could
convert into a reasonably accurate animated map?
