A maker in Rome in 1760. His instruments were very arched, with varnish of bad quality, brown shading into black in colour ; the work not well finished. Label: “J. B. Salino fecit Roma, anno 1760.”
Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+
Seine Geigen haben sehr wenig von dem italienischen Stil seiner Zeitgenossen; sie sind hochgewölbt, der Lack ist braun, in’s Schwärzliche spielend und die Arbeit ungenau.
Henri Poidras+
Dark varnish. High arching.
