Biographies

John Dilworth

SCARAMPELLA, Stefano Born 1843 Brescia, died 1925 Mantua Italy. Brother and pupil of Giuseppe Scarampella. Established in Mantua. Various classical models, but much of his work is a muscular interpretation of Stradivari or his Mantuan predecessor T. Balestrieri. Prolific and very successful maker, although technically his craftsmanship is not as consistently fine as that of Giuseppe. Scrolls tend to be quite coarsely finished. Red-brown varnish sometimes a little thin and dull, but just as often rich and well-applied. Used local Italian ‘oppio’ wood regularly. Also much copied, like his brother.
