Friedrich Wilhelm Worked circa. 1769-1799 Klingenthal. Coarse trade work. Long soundholes with poor opaque varnish. Friedrich Wilhelm Meisel / Sitatuari Cremonalis baviebat / Ao 1770
Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+
Seiner Arbeit nach gehört er zu den besseren Vogtländer Geigenmachern;
sein Modell hat nichts Italienisches an sich, obwohl er durch seinen in geradezu
lächerlich unsinnigem Latein verfassten Zettel bei unverständigen
Käufern den Glauben erwecken wollte, sie hatten eine Cremoneser Arbeit vor sich.
