John Dilworth+

VENTURA, Annibale Worked circa. 1735-1760 Viadana & Milan Italy. Son or grandson of Giovanni Ventura, below. Vannes records a fine violin of Stradivari model dated 1738 with yellow-brown varnish.

Willibald Leo Lütgendorff+

Vielleicht ein Sohn oder Enkel von Giovanni V. Wenn er auch sorgfältiger arbeitete als dieser, so gehört er doch nur zu den Geigenmachern dritten Ranges.

Karel Jalovec+

Viadana and Milan ca 1740, followed on the whole Stradivari; poor workmanship, golden-yellow varnish.
