From that date till 1736 ho worked incessantly, often varying his style, and always improving, till he came to! his climax, represented in this collection by the violins 83 and 87, and the violoncello 188. He began with rather a small, short-cornered violin, which is an imitation of the small Amati, but very superior. He went on, and imitated the large Amati, but softened down the corners. For thirty years-from 1672 to 1703-he poured forth violins of this pattern; there are several in this collection, and one tenor, 139, with a plain back but a beautiful belly, and in admirable preservation. But, while he was making these Amatise violins by the hundred, he had nevertheless his fits of originality, and put forth an anomaly every now and then; sometimes it was a very long, narrow violin with elegant drooping corners, and sometimes, in a happier mood, he combined these drooping corners with a far moro beautiful model. Of these varieties No. 86 gives just an indication; no more. These lucid intervals never lasted long, be was back to his Amatis next week. Yet they left, I think, the germs that broke out so marvellously in the next century. About the year 1703 it seems to have struck him like a revelation that ho was a greater man than his master.

Please look at the three violins in this order to realize what I have indicated before- that time is no sure measure of events in this business. Nevertheless, in all these exquisite productions there was one thing which he thought capable of improvement-there was a slight residue of Books Biography & Autobiography~~General Readiana-Comments-On-Current-Events~~Charles-Reade Nabu Press This is a reproduction of a book published before 1923.
