(b. c. 1680)
Alberto Platner was presumed to have been of Tyrolean origin. He was first recorded with the Dominicus family in Rome, who were makers of plucked instruments. He established himself independently in 1674. In 1701, he was appointed luthier to the Palazzo Pamphilj. He employed several assistants, including his son Michele and G. Taningard. He was chiefly involved in repairs and the making of plucked instruments, although at least one violin is recorded with his label dated 1699.
