Notes:
"The quality of the workmanship and the varnish, the choice of wood and the personality of this instrument undoubtedly place Rogeri among the greatest classical makers ofthis period. The model of the soundholes and the flat development of the head leading into the volute from the side view of the scroll, are the most characteristic traits of his style."Liutai in Brescia: 1520-1724, Eric Blot, Liutai in Brescia: 1520-1724, Cremona
