This book tells us much about the understanding of experts at the turn of the century. The later Hill book is, without doubt, a huge leap forward because of the depth of research and the experience of its authors. But Petherick was a leading figure of his time, whose ideas were current and respected. First published in 1898.
Hardback. 82pp.

Matteo Gofriller violin 1700 poster
£22.95
Sold by: The Strad Shop
A classic example of the great Venetian's work: his own pattern with glorious varnish and individual wood selection. Includes measurements
'The violin's hollowed edge is characteristic and the purfling is swept across the corner in Stradivari fashion. The f-holes are typical of the Cremona-influenced Tyrolean makers – based on the Brothers Amati but wider and upright in stance. Over the wood Gofriller laid the most supple varnish, which often seems to have no substance at all but is steeped into the wood, turning it a deep burgundy colour. Beneath the dark patina there is a slight rose-madder tint to the red.' – John Dilworth in the December 2000 issue of The Strad
