This bow portrays the moment of his highest experience and skills, the deeply personal, consistent approach, and the core inspiration by the work of Peccate, which is notable in the strong and precise chamfer, and the head's straight cheeks. The highlight of this bow is the amazing quality of the red-brown pernambuco wood octagonal stick.

    Violin by Ferdinando Gagliano, Naples, 1771

    By Ferdinando Gagliano  |  

    Covered with a lovely golden varnish, this Ferdinando Gagliano violin presents most of the typical characteristics of the Neapolitan school that was consolidated by his own generation: The curved shape of the pegbox, the delicate and small design of the scroll, and the Stradivari model of the body and f-holes, with full but elegant and mild arching.
