1891 1^ed The Antonio Stradivarius Messiah Salabue VIOLIN Music Illustrated Hill

 

Stradivarius violins are unquestionably the most famous, popular, and beautiful string instruments to ever be made. During the 17^th and 18^th-centuries, Antonio Stradivari earned a reputation for creating instruments defined by their sound quality which has never been able to be reproduced. The Messiah-Salabue Stradivarius was a 1716 violin made by Stradivari and is considered to be the only ‘Strad’ to exist in its ‘like-new’ state.

 

This remarkable instrument was given to the W.E. Hill family who display it at the Ashmolean Museum in Oxford, and in 1891, the published a ‘report’ or story on the world’s most famous violin.
