Notes:
It is said that the great English collector Mr. James Goding named the violin the “Jupiter” around 1800. It was referred to as “De Chaponay”, “Imperator”, “Ex-Goding” during the 18th to 19th century. [...] In May 1998, Nippon Music Foundation acquired “Jupiter” from the Hayashibara Foundation through a luthier.Nippon Music Foundation Instruments: Jupiter Stradivari
