The ‘Titian’ Stradivari of 1715 has long been counted among the finest violins of the maker’s golden period. It has revealed itself to be a formidable concert instrument of unusual power and scope, remarkable for its focus and resilience under the bow. The violin was dubbed ‘Titian’ by the French dealer Albert Caressa because of its clear orange\u2013red colour, which reminded him of the work of the famous Venetian painter. Includes photographs, scans and measurements<\/p>\n
\u2018On first look, the violin seems strong and solid, with its smoothly worn patina, sturdy arching and edgework, and immaculate finishing with virtually no visible trace of the hand \u2013 all is pure architecture, with the execution almost completely subsumed. The patina shows careful use, with the edges rounded and the varnish smoothed to a luminous film.\u2019 \u2013 Sam Zygmuntowicz in the February 2009 issue<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
