Liuteria Italiana(Eric Blot) Vol.2 Pag.219
———————————-
Double-bass player at Saronno (near Milan) 1888-1920. Modelling of rather forbidding aspect, dangerously near those factory-type instruments which deserve not to be promulgated. Outline and arching completely liberal in things which repel. Proportions generally too large. Scroll furnishes the one good point above wholesale mediocrity. Indifferently cut sound-holes, one feels a desire to cut off a tiny portion of the wings. Light yellow or pale golden shades of varnish. Orchestral tone of the vitiated order. ￡85, 1960.
