Biographies

The overview above is drawn from the following published accounts. Read them in the original:

John Dilworth+

Michael (II) Worked circa. 1846. Decent work on Amati model with red-brown varnish of good quality. Commonly relabelled as Amati.

Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+

Wenn er auch seinen tüchtigeren Vorfahren nicht gleichkommt und nicht
mehr Alles an seinen Geigen allein gemacht hat, so besass er doch eine nicht
zu unterschätzende Geschicklichkeit. Sein Modell zeigt annähernd die Umrisse
einer A. Amati-Geige; der Lack ist rothbraun.
