Detail Introduction
Born in Grosskirchheim, Carinthia (Austria). Worked in Augsburg from 1656- 1690. Principally made lutes and viols. Only a very few violins known. High arching of the Stainer type, sometimes having a groove near the edge. Not an attractive model, often flattened across middle bouts. Large sound-holes done with fine exactitude. Excellent acoustical wood. Dark brown varnish of rather good quality. Tone fairly powerful but lacking clarity. Workmanship thoroughly well done. Very popular, as well as an accomplished maker of the older instru¬ments, and for these his hands were generally very busily occupied with the many commissions he received from the nobility of his country.
