This beautiful De Luxe Edition is an investment of a lifetime. Limited to 100 copies, it is leather-bound with gilt edges; the volumes are individually numbered and registered.
“Taken together, these eight volumes are a massive achievement, a substantial reset of the standards and quality of documentation, and a valuable contribution to our understanding of the work of the greatest violin maker who ever lived. This is above all a brave project, given the value and importance of these instruments and their often sensitive histories and attributions.”
