ANTONIUS STRADIVARIUS CREMONENSIS - FACIEBAT ANNO 1727
The collection “Gli Archi di Palazzo Comunale” in Cremona has been enriched by a third violin made by Antonio Stradivari, one of the most valuable pieces of world violin making: “Il Vesuvio 1727”.
Purchased by an English governor at the end of the 19th century, who also took it to India, the Vesuvio came into the possession of the violinist Jan Hambourg, who kept it until his death (1947) giving life to a popular trio together with the brothers Mark (pianist) and Boris (cellist). The heirs sold it to the Spanish violinist Antonio Brosa, Lauricella's teacher, and it passed to the student around 1968. Born in London to a family of Sicilian origin, Maestro Remo Lauricella used to return to Italy every year and regularly stopped in Cremona, where he found the "Carlo IX" by Andrea Amati, the instrument he had played during his career for twelve years, from 1935 to 1947. At the end of the summer of 1978, Maestro Lauricella stayed in Cremona. Upon his return to London, in October of the same year, he wrote a letter to the then Mayor Emilio Zanoni in which he assured that he had confirmed in his will his wish to donate, at the time of his death, to the city of Cremona, the Stradivarius "Il Vesuvio 1727". Maestro Lauricella passed away on January 19, 2003, but held hostage by the British tax authorities and bureaucracy, the precious Vesuvio 1727 arrived in Cremona only in October 2005. Years ago, the Vesuvio 1727 was valued by Sotheby’s at 300,000 pounds, equal to approximately 450.000,00 Euro. It cannot be ruled out that the real value of the instrument has increased in the meantime. The authenticity of the Vesuvio 1727 violin has been certified several times by important expertise, the most significant one was carried out in May 1929 by the famous W.E. Hall & Sons of London, who then issued a certificate signed by Alfred Hill, stating that the violin is an authentic work by Antonio Stradivari with the original label bearing the date 1727. The Vesuvio 1727 is mentioned in “Violin Iconography of Antonio Stradivari 1644-1737” by Herbert k. Goodhind.
