A violin by Michele Platner
Rome, circa 1725-30
Michele Platner was active in Rome from around 1720 to his death in 1752. He was a pupil of his father, but strongly influenced by his contemporary David Tecchler. This violin is inspired by the small model of Nicolo Amati, and is finely executed with a generous coat of rich dark golden brown varnish.
