124: A VIOLIN BY JOHANNES THEODORUS CUYPERS, THE HAGUE, c. 1780


Unlabeled.

LOB: 35.5 cm

A late eighteenth-century violin from the great Dutch master. The model is compact and orderly, with restrained arching and neatly proportioned f-holes set with precision. The light brown varnish, laid over a clear ground, has softened attractively with age and use. Cuypers’ violins are highly desired for their tonal clarity and understated refinement.

  • Dendrochronology report: Peter Ratcliff, London (Sep 17 2024) Dates the latest ring of the bass and treble side as 1770 and 1763, respectively.
