EDITORS COMMENTS
This photograph, taken in the 1870s, showcases three exquisite 18th century violins: the Antonius Stradivarius, 1701 (Hart & Son), the Carlo Bergonzi, 1708 (H.B. Heath), and the second Antonius Stradivarius, 1708 (Hector Havermeyer). These violins, masterpieces of their time, were crafted during the golden age of violin making in Italy. The first violin, the 1701 Stradivarius, is often referred to as the "Hart & Son" Stradivarius, as it was once owned by the renowned English violin dealer George Hart. Its rich, resonant tone and exceptional craftsmanship have made it a favorite among musicians for centuries. The second violin, the 1708 Bergonzi, is a beautiful example of the work of Carlo Bergonzi, a contemporary and rival of Stradivarius. Its distinctive orange-brown varnish and elegant design make it a sought-after instrument among collectors and performers. The third violin, the second 1708 Stradivarius, was once owned by the American collector Hector Havermeyer. Its dark, warm tone and intricate details make it a prized possession for any musician. These three violins, each with its unique character and history, are a testament to the artistry and innovation of the 18th century Italian violin makers. They continue to inspire and captivate musicians and collectors alike, over 300 years after they were crafted.
