Detail Introduction
Born 1843. Died 1892. Son, pupil and successor of Carolus. Worked in Paris. Recognised as the best Parisian luthier of his day. Specialist in minutely replicating the model of a Lupot. Rarely found nowadays, at any of the dealers, but are greedily acquired wherever they can be met with. In Paris they bring prices higher than in England. Workmanship of surpassing excellence, demonstrating a maker who felt and comprehended art, and who brought to his aid the skill derived from experience. Difficult to over-rate the beauty of the orange-red varnish. Tone and appearance supply all the enjoyment capable of being conveyed to ears and eyes. Often purchased for the unaccountably low price of £20. £75,1959. Shops |
