Wahrscheinlich ein Sohn von Ant. M. L. Violinen mit seinem Namen und der Jahreszahl 1780 kommen vor; 1718 scheint nur durch Nachmalen der verblichenen Ziffer 1778 entstanden zu sein, wenn man nicht annehmen will, dass es zwei gleichnamige Meister gegeben hat. Dafür spricht eine Geige von 1634 auf
dem Chore zu St. Veit in Prag.
