小提琴

Andrea Amati Italian

On view at The Met Fifth Avenue in Gallery 684

安德烈·阿玛蒂是第一位克雷莫纳弦琴工匠,正是他造就了小提琴优雅的外形并为他的后继者设定了风格的标杆。这些人包括他的两个儿子,他的孙子尼科洛·阿玛蒂以及安东尼奥·斯特拉迪瓦里。这是现存年代最久远的小提琴之一,琴面饰有瓦卢瓦王室的百合花,一句拉丁文箴言“那宗教是,且将永是唯一的堡垒”,还有一个看似属于西班牙腓力二世的盾徽。这把小提琴可能是凯瑟琳·德·美第奇和法王亨利二世在他们的女儿伊丽莎白·德·瓦卢瓦于1559年嫁给腓力二世时赠送的礼物之一,以祝贺这段为了巩固法国与西班牙的和平而缔结的婚姻。
