    Alfred Joseph Lamy

    Mirecourt, Paris, 1850–1919

    Alfred Joseph Lamy (1850-1919), known as 'Lamy Père', was a distinguished French bow maker born in Mirecourt and active in Paris. He apprenticed with C. C. N. Husson and worked for Gautrot and F. N. Voirin, whom he considered his true teacher. Establishing his own workshop at 34 rue Poissonnière in 1885, Lamy became renowned for his very fine bows, crafted in the Voirin tradition and including excellent copies of Tourte. He was recognized with a silver medal in 1889 and a gold medal in 1900 at the Paris exhibitions. His son, Hippolyte Camille, succeeded him in the business.

    Worked Mirecourt, Paris
    Made Cello Bow, Viola Bow, Violin Bow
    Family Son of Jean Joseph

    Maker Overview

    Life

    Alfred Joseph Lamy (1850-1919), known as 'Lamy Père', was born on September 8, 1850, in Mirecourt, France, and died in 1919 in Paris. He was the son of Jean Joseph Lamy., he was apprenticed to C. C. N. Husson and schooled in Vuillaume styles. He worked for Gautrot in Chateau-Thierry from 1868 to 1876, applying Husson methods and models. Subsequently, he was employed by F. N. Voirin in Paris, working there from 1877 to 1885. Lamy established his independent business in 1885 at 34 rue Poissonnière in Paris. John Dilworth highlights that he was one of the few classical archetiers who maintained his own distinct brand without having to supply dealers or violin makers who imposed their own. His sons, Georges Léon and Hippolyte Camille, assisted him in his work. Hippolyte Camille succeeded to the business in 1919, following Georges' death in the First World War in 1915.


    Characteristics

    Workmanship
    Alfred Joseph Lamy was a clever and conscientious workman, whose bows were as carefully finished as those of his old master, F. N. Voirin. Willibald Leo Lütgendorff notes that he completely dedicated himself to bow making and brought it to great perfection.
    Style
    He produced very fine bows in the Voirin tradition and particularly fine copies of Tourte.
    Materials & Characteristics
    Early in his career, Lamy used octagonal sticks, but these were reserved for his early work only. His later work is distinguished by a slightly stronger head.
