Biographies
The overview above is drawn from the following published accounts. Read them in the original:
Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+
Wahrscheinlich Sohn von Enrico C. — Er verwendet ein ziemlich hohes
Modell und dicken, rothen oder rothbraunen Lack. Vidal beschreibt eine gute
Violine dieses Meisters im Besitz des
Marquis de St. Hilaire in Paris. Der Name Francesco Gattinari
erscheint hier »Gattinari« geschrieben.
Cecie Stainer+
Son of Enrico Gattinari. A clever maker in Turin about 1700-5. A violin of excellent tone, rather arched, with effective red-brown varnish, was of good workmanship and was labelled ” Francesco Gattinari, fecit Taurini, anno Domini 1704.” An alto with thick red varnish was also well made.
