    Luigi Guzzi

    Brescia

    GUZZI, Luigi c.1540 Brescia Italy. Vannes cites a high-arched cello, primitive work with pearwood head, one piece poplar back, and soundholes recalling Pellegrino. No archival record of such a maker has so far emerged. Genuine Brescian work of this period is generally not dated. — John Dilworth
