A general need for improved knowledge of post-golden period Italian violin making has prompted the creation of this book, bringing to life a previously little explored subject by revealing recently discovered facts and proposing original theories regarding the lives and works of these luthiers.
In depth texts about each maker accompany detailed, superior photographs of over forty diverse original examples of their works.
This valuable publication provides both an enhanced opportunity for study and a beautiful addition to any violin oriented library (319 pages, 24 cm x 33 cm).
