Labeled, "Matteo Goffriller fecit Venetijis anno 17..."
LOB: 35.1 cm
Odoardi likely began his career as a repairer of instruments for local musicians before establishing himself as an important maker and restorer. His instruments are marked by a strong individuality, often distinguished by deeply and precisely carved scrolls, and he is now regarded as the leading maker of his region.
Preserved in excellent condition for its age, this violin offers a compelling combination of craftsmanship, personality, and historical interest. It represents a fine opportunity to acquire the work of a highly individual and skilled maker whose reputation continues to grow. The violin is accompanied by certificates from J. & A. Beare Ltd and Jason Price for Tarisio.
